RE: Battery Pack Mounting Advice
I used the Ultra coat on a small model recently and I'll tell you now that I will never go back to Monokote again. The UltraCote has the color going through the complete material and when you need to reheat and lift you don't have to worry about the adhisive sticking to the model when you lift it and reset the covering. The tear resistance of the materials seems to be much higher than Monokote. I've notice that Monokote (I heard that Hobbico bought them) is getting complaints about the consistancy of the color of one run to another are not very close. Try the UltraCote I think you'll really like it.
