I've always used Monokote for aircraft, but now I'm looking for a lightweight pre-colored matte finish look for a WWI electric parkflyer type aircraft. I haven't found such a material that has adhesive on it already. I really want to avoid tissue/paint, and if possible dope, the latter I'm afraid of messing up the model. Anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks!

Coverite heat shrinkable fabric. Goes on like monokote.

Also SIG coverall, but you have to use Sticks It to adhere.

Contact Phil Cartier of Core House and get a roll of his SLC.... it is cheap, clear, light weight, tough stuff we us on combat planes. You can lightly spray the glue side with most acrylic dime store paint (mix your own shade) or scuff up the top side with scotch pad, clean with alcohol, and spray most paint on top (looks better underneath in my opinion cuz you keep the shiny clear coat looking covering.)
