Default RE: Checkerboard iron on covering

I'm with you Bob. I don't have the patience to do them one at a time. I used the 2" Ultracote on this profile. The 1" is a little small for me. The 2" gives a little more definition. Be sure and take your time with this. It is a little harder to get the rows to lineup from one wing panel to the next when using the checkerboard. I used the TE of the wing as a starting point. Then on the aile I had to cut a piece a little oversize, set the aile next to the wing, line up the pattern then tack it down. Once it was tacked I could stick it down good and trim. It takes a little patience to get it right.
