Default RE: Top Flite Staggerwing

O.K. gang: here's some info for the "Painting MonoKote question. I have attached a photo of the paint I use. I have only found it at Auto Paint store. Its for painting plastics, a flexible paint. Its also acetone based so no primer is required, cripes you really dont even need to buff the monoKote (I do anyway) Now the low luster clear is what I just to dull the monoKote for a "flat look. This stuff is really great, I still have guys at the field that insist I painted my Great Planes Curtis Hawk. Its also fuel proof. I used the gloss black to paint the leading edges on the Staggerwing, Also sprayed the entire plane with the clear gloss to make it all look even. This stuff sprays really easy, even used it when its windy, dries within about two minutes. If ya all can find give it try: you wont be sorry
