Hey folks,

looking fo the name of the covering used in many ARFs, the GP P-51 40 being my own example. It appears to be foam wrapped around the frame with som sort of paper affixed to the foam. Then the colors are printed on the foam/paper.

Does this stuff have a trade name?

Kit is going together well just thinking of the first time I haev to patch it.

Thanks

I don't know its name.

I do know that the recommended patch material is Packing Tape, though.

I may be wrong but I don't think it's a covering that you can buy off the shelf no way. I've seen the type your talking about though, I've got a Lion Models Cessna covered in the ame stuff. It looks great but your only hope if it's ever damaged beyond a decent repair is to strip it and replace it with a better covering such as Monokote or Ultracote.

I think it's called S pecial
