I am in the middle of covering my Banshee and thought I would try something I read about in another forum. That Is using hairspray to seal the wood before covering. I'm using monocoat for the first time in a lot of years because the color(metallic platinum) isn't available in ultracote. I can't get the stuff to seal down to the wood in spots. I wish I would have tested on some scrap. I stopped and covered everything else with a lite coat of balsarite like I always have. I can't decide whether its the monocoat or the hairspray, or both. What do you guys think? Anyway, a heads up.
regards Sugarfox
I would use only Balsa Rite. Hairspray on a Viva or Bounty paper towel makes a great tack cloth prior to painting. Let the hair spray dry fo 30 minutes before useing. Do not use hair spray on wood prior to covering. Balsa Rite only.
