Trax,
i throw this out as another alternative to 'glassing your model. here's what i did with my Sig Cub on which i'm currrently working. the entire fuselage is covered in Koverall. i initially applied a couple of coats of nitrate dope to seal the fabric and later i applied a coat of lacquer primer and sanded to get rid of the nubs. last night i applied the aluminum tape. i still have to fill in the seams as this should look like one continuous metal panel. the dope and primer helped fill in enough of the fabric so that the weave did not show up through the tape. the one drawback is that the fabric won't prevent dents the way a 'glassed panel would.
