- Hi,
-
- I'm finishing a Sig Senior (my first plane). I plan to cover with
- monocoat. My question is: How does one stripe this stuff? Do you cover
- with a base color, cut stripes out of some other color and stick them on
- with the iron? Or do you get some kind of paint, mask off the stripes
- and paint them on? Or do you cut the monocoat to fit (i.e. different
- pieces for the stripes, but they only overlap the rest of the covering
- and are not placed on top of a base covering? The latter seems quite
- ridiculous!
-
- Also, what kind of filler materials would modelers out there recommend?
- This is strictly for balsa and not for exotic materials like carbon
- fiber or whatever.
-
- Thanks,
