Just started covering the outer wing panels and fuse. The ailerons, tail surfaces and wing center section are covered and have several coats of Sig Nitrate clear on them.

One question I've always had with regards to latex house paint is the weight. Everytime I hear of someone using latex house paint my mind goes back to my childhood when my cousing used some on a C/L model. Weighed so much he couldn't get it off the ground! Of course it could have other issues.

Is there a difference between latex house paint and other types of latex? I've used latex enamels on some projects, model RR for one.

I guess I'm not too concerned about weight if it would happen that it's heavier since the model is supposed to be a really sweet flier at the projected weight of 20-21 lbs.
