Default Super Coverite

I am thinking about covering my Tower Fun 51 in Super Coverite. Does anyone have experience with Super coverite? Advantages, disadvantages.

What do I need to know about applying the dope?

Thanks

use it all the time and there's no trouble with its application. JUST follow rhe instructions. make sure that you try and pull all of the wrinkles out as you iron it on. the biggest problem right now is finding a good source for it. dick

Hi!
If you want to use a several decade old product ...go ahead! Today there are much better materials like Oratex. Try it and you will never use anything else in textile films.

Any idea what brand name Oratex would be sold under in the US?

I used Super Coverite for years, today it is Solartex for me.

Hi!
Oratex is made by the same manufacturer in Germany (Berlin) who makes Oracover (Ultracote to you Americans).
