I have a wing already covered with monokote, now I want to put some trim on that matches the other color, do I have to iron it on or can I put in on with some other method? The trim that I want to put on is not the adhesive type but regular monokote.

Ken, will it work the same way with Ultra? And once I applying it with Windex and I push out the moisture and I let it sit for a day... could I run a warm Iron with a " Baby Sock" over it to set the glue a little better? I'm sure you know that I'm going to attempt making that black lightning stripe on my Cub tommaro. I'll take pictures and post the repairs. And yes, I have hairspray and a bag of "Baby Socks."

Luft,

No, Ultracote uses a different adhesive than MonoKote and it is not activated by windex.

This, IMHO is the only advantage of MK over UC

Adding MK trim with windex over UC works fine too.

That's what I do since UC works a lot better for me, but I can never seem to get a nice piece of UC trim laid down.

I believe heat is what activates the glue on Ultra. I guess we lay the strip flat, and don't have the Iron too hot and the edge of the trim won't get messed up.
