re-monocoating
 
hi. i recently bought a plane off of RC universe. and i found a small pealing part on the wing of either monocoat or some sort of tape were it sealed a gap. i have never had to monocoat since this is my first nitro model and was woundering if someone could give me some pointers, instruction, or pictures of how to fix this problem.

Thank You,
Andrew

To be honest, if this is a trainer, I would not worry about fixing the small holes, just put some shipping tape over it and fly it, think of your first plane as a tool to learn how to fly, you more then likely will put a couple more small holes in it from hanger rash or small minor crashes.

Just my thoughts
