Help! How much Ultracote is needed??
 
I'm planning to recover a H9 Edge 540 that I have stripped the covering from. I wanted to know how many rolls of Ultracote would I need? 3 rolls enough? Thanks
:confused:

What size and wingspan? If it is the 1/4 scale version, you'll need around 4-5 rolls, depending on color scheme. If you do the whole plane in one color, maybe 4 rolls, but you'd have to be careful with your waste.

Yes, it is the 1.20 size plane with a 78" wingspan. I guess you're right. It will probably take a 4-5 rolls to get the job done. Anyone know if you can use H9 Easycoat and Ultracote together? I didn't know it was going to cost $50 to cover this plane. :( Thanks

I've never used easykote, but monokote and ultracote will stick to almost anything. Just make sure that the glue activation temperatures are the same or very close.
