I want to ask something about the heat gun and the iron. I think i saw somewhere using an iron with a towel. Is that correct? I think is correct because if you use the iron only on the monokote, it will melt, right? I saw heat guns that have adjustable temps. How much i must adjust it? 120 clecious? 700? 1200?
Oh, and where else you can find monokote or ultracote? That thing reminds me a material that can be sold in bookshops.[8D]
The iron is designed to work safely and perfectly with Monokote or Ultracote. You can cover with either perfectly with just a covering iron.
Each covering is designed for model airplanes. They are easy to use, and relatively easy to create perfect looking work. They are designed to provide strength, puncture resistance, and to last without maintenance. They're also fuel proof. You are wasting your time looking for alternative coverings.
Where to find? Where did you find your model? Any mail order hobby dealer you find on the internet should answer an email question about shipping to you.
