    You’ve got yourself a beautifully looking Corsair.
    On my hangar 9 Corsair the monocoat film is multi laired.
    It has the dark blue on top and a silver underneath to allow it to naturally weather overtime.

    Andrew this video is super valuable. I am going to try to paint trim on Monokote, it looks like it's a much better way to go than for trim than cutting out Monokote shapes and ironing on pieces that will only start to fall off after a season of flying. More paint, less Monokote = BRILLIANT.

    the creeping into the corners can be controlled by first shooting the area with the base color, that way any creeping will be in the base color and the void will be filled stopping the top color from being able to seep. As you were not spraying a base color, alternately shoot a layer of clear first, same result.

    Slightly heat the area you are about to paint with a heat gun.. the paint will set faster and less paint runs

    Plain old black electrical tape works great for taping on curves. It can be pulled and stretched while laying it down. Leaves a nice clean edge after painting also.

    Looks great. You would have gotten a brighter result with less coats if there were a white primer coat on first. Color is translucent to a certain degree, light goes through the paint and bounces back off the lower saturation color, so what you end up seeing is the grey de-saturating the orange. Maybe that;s the result you wanted though. Nice looking plane though.

    I use steel wool so it doesn't thin the covering as much. Just a suggestion though....

    Is alcohol the best way to prep for removing your oils and dust? Or is there a better way? Or any other different methods? Any info would be appreciated thank ya

    • @n1114v
      @n1114v  2 роки тому

      Alcohol is one of the best products to use because of its intense power to clean and how quickly it evaporates

    Hi what color did you use on the grey and the white I’m getting a E-3 radar plane covered in silver monokote but I was thinking of painting it I think I’m the colors you have are proper

    you should know that you can prime foam with any oil base paint or even polyurethane.
    these oil base or paint thinner base coatings do not dissolve foam.
    it's the acetone etc. in spray paints that does the damage
    We stripped the paint off of an Arrow Corsair using packing tape (pulls the paint right off) and coated it with 'minwax wipe on poly' as a hard primer and painted it with oil based semi-gloss or you can use any spray paint on the poly primer

    You should use Tri. Tape to prevent seeping into the tape. It looks good though. It’s all in the detail

    Was thinking a clear adhesion pre spray would seal the tape edges and prevent color bleed through.

    • @n1114v
      @n1114v  5 років тому

      No i did not, most of the paints in cans are a paint and primer in one. As long as the covering is roughed up it should stick fine
