Stupid question?
Does monocoat or any other covering stick to coroplast?

Re: Stupid question?
Hi,
If you go to a sign shop, they have self adhesive vinyl that sticks to coro and can be used as trim. They usually have lots of scraps and will either give it to you or charge very little if you tell them what it is for. Hope this helps. Fly4Fun, Wayne |

Re: Stupid question?
I would say you could still do it but it would be much much easier to start with coloured coro and paint it with nice complimentary patterns.
Having said that, since there generally are no compound curves to worry about (wrapping the vinyl around a rounded curve would be quite difficult--wrinkled comes to mind ) so GO FOR IT We know you wanna do it. It won't cause any issues for you. |

Re: Stupid question?
I was wondering if it would actually bond like it does on balsa,and if it would fly off during flight?
