Default monokote over paint???
alright... i did a search for general construction discussions and couldn't find anything. i'm building a set of GP .40 size floats, yes you guessed it...for my cub, but the plane is finished in coast guard colors and i can't get the orange lustrekote anymore. i'm wondering how well monokote is going to stick to the painted surface of the floats or if i should try to cover the floats and not worry about the paint. the floats are going to be fiberglassed... not changing the mind on that one. but i want a mostly white finish on them with orange trim and maybe some of the blue. i know the paint would be a little heavier than the covering, but the motor is probably going to be a .50-.70 size 4 banger. not realy worried 'bout power.
