I am in the (long) process of covering my build. I am using a two color scheme and I'm having problems withthe material puckering at the point where the two colors meet.

The covering is SIG Aerokote lite (Corsair Blue) and AirBorne Models Lightex (Cub Yellow). Iam told that both materials are identical.The reason I have one of each is because SIG stopped offering the Cub yellow after I already had the Blue.

I am new at covering but I have managed to getthehorizontal stabilizer covered (and recovered) with no puckering. Today I was working onthe rudder and encountered this problem.

Myprocess is to cut the two pieces, overlap them by about 3/8" and thenbond them together using heat (obviously) onapiece of glass beforeattaching them to the framework.

However, after attaching them to the framework, I tried low heat, hight heat and even put a hole in the covering to let the expanding air escape but it just will notsmooth out. Both sides are puckered. However, theyare not stuck together due to excessive pressure.

My thought is that I may not have used enough heat to initialllybond the two pieces together and now they arepulling apart as I heat them.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, is there a solution or technique to use?

Thanks
