RE: Is a Heat Gun really needed ?
you need a heat gun. it will shrink the covering. use the iron to atach to air frame.. Or you could get some nylon covering. dye it the colour you like. use dope to put on frame. then 1 or 2 coats of banana oil. this is no piss take it is like dope but none shrinking and gives a elastic waxy feal to it. a lot stronger then sola tex and sola film..
