Re: Which covering do you use?
I think to determine what film is better - is a very long topic to discuss because someone likes a melon, but another one - beer.
These are just some criteria - Stickiness to surface or to the base film - Bubbles under covering, when one color overlaps another - Loosing tightness when temperature changes - Royal paint color matching (Royal colors are standardized) - Opaqueness of variety colors (white, yellow must be totally opaque if you put them on black base) - Variety of transparent and semitransparent colors - Overall appearance of covering on the aircraft - Easy to work with - Supporting products (trimming films, matching paint, trimming strips) Last edited by spyder3; 04-03-2009 at 01:14 PM. |
