RE: Hairspray
Ed, glad to hear I'm not the only one to have tried this hair brained idea, (pun intended). I have covered the rest of the wing after a coat of balsarite and I'm having the same problem in spots. It's like the monocote doesn't have a consistant amt of glue on it. I thought the balsarite would cure the problem. I worked on this off and on all day today and am about fed up with it. I'm dreading taking it to the field on a hot sunny day. I expect it to wrinkle up like a prune. Anyway I an done with monocote, again. I will say that the seams dissapear better than with ultracote, assuming because it is a thinner film. I know that others have good luck with this stuff but I'm not happy with it at all. I've been modeling for 35 years or more so I do have some experience. Not that I know it all, maybe I'm doing something wrong.......................anyway, it is what it is.
Thanks for talking to Ed H. about it. He must have had some success. I really don't think the hairspray has anything at all to do with the problem
