Covering Material Problems

[&:]Finished my last plane using Sig low temp. material, aluminum color. I am having problems with the material not sticking good at the edges of the fuselage especially along the bottom. Any suggestions as to what I could seal it with. I have tried re-ironing it and it will not stay down. Is poor adhesion a characteristic of the material? Fred123

RE: Covering Material Problems

Clean it as best you can with some alcohol and then use some clear fingernail polish and paint a thin line overlapping the seams. Let it dry and you should be good to go. I've done it on a few of my airplanes and it worked pretty good.
