Ugly graphics
 
OK,
you know the story. I see the deal of the century on a giant stinger rtf. It's ugly, but it's "Thedealofthecentury"!!!!
I feel like I can learn on the plane even if it is ugly.

Well... I'm flyin and it's just too ugly.
How do I get graphics off of a colored fabric?? I don't know what the tech name of the fabric is, but it's good covering and it is not painted. It came the color that it is.

If I could get those pink (yes pink) stars off my very manly Stinger, I and it would feel better.
Thanks,
Matt

Hey Matt: Really, I don't know without knowing what kind of material the graphics are made from, As well as the covering. And still may not be much help. But here's a suggestion. Is it possible to cover them with a highly opaque graphic of a diff. nature, IE like a company logo, like maybe an oil co. or something. You know like they plaster all over race cars, something of this nature. Or did the original designer go "Ozzy" with the pink stars. if so can you incorporate some of them into a diff scheme. You know the old cover up. Gawd knows I've hidden some pretty flaky looken stuff In my days. Sad part is it was my own work in the first place. :o Always happy to help if I can. Garry

Hey- What's wrong with pink! I use to have a 65'' biplane that was all pink. It is one of the colors that doesn't change color in the air. I always replied when someone asked about flying a pink airplane- It takes a man to fly something this pink.

Pink
 
Hey,
You are talking to the owner of the best looking pink and black cap 21 you have ever seen. It is a show stopper. I would post a pic, but don't the camera to do it with.
But this plane's colors are......light yellow, dark red, silver and pink stars. Talk about ugly. It's unbelievable. I call it my everyday flyer. It could look so much better if the stars were gone and it had big flags across the wings. Also, there are too many to cover up.

If the graphics are iron on material, you can use your iron to loosen the glue and peel it off.
