Title: Monokote on Carbon
Post by: Michael Duffy on October 07, 2010, 07:26:06 PM

I have a new project underway and was wondering: Will monokote stick to the Carbon under neath?
I have the pieces doped and covered in carbon, will this allow monokote to stick or do i have to cover in a silkspan or polyspan kind of fashion.

Thank You
Michael Duffy

Forget the Monokote and finish painting the plane.  You will be much happier in the long run.  H^^
