Hey Gator,
here is a tip, Transperent Ultracote works better than monocote for the windex thing, lays down so smooth no tiny bubbles hit it with heat after the windex dries and it's there. the purple is Trans Ultra the black is mono and the ultra wins, normal ultra doesn't work though as you know.

oh i also recently discovered a slight warp in my wing. The trailing edge on the left side drops a little. Its about 1/2 to 3/4 of a centemeter out of line. how much will this affect the way it flys.

That's very little....shouldn't bother you at all. And if you're really concerned you can always twist it a little bit with the covering. But I wouldn't bother. Anyone else's thoughts?
