BriandKilby 05-Sep-11 15:24 having trouble with monokote not sticking in some places to balsa, any pointers or help? John M Oshust 05-Sep-11 15:44 Remove and try again! Xanadu 05-Sep-11 17:43 It is a bit tricky doing it the first time. It does shrink quite a bit, and some gentle heat will help. Takes a bit of practice. Here are some links for helping you out. http://www.monokote.com/monoinst1.html http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=monokote&aq=f Xanadu 05-Sep-11 17:47 Take your time, start at one corner, tack it, then go to the opposite one pull it taut, and tack it. Then go to the other corners, and do same, gently pulling it taut while tacking it. Heat seal along one side solid, then while pulling it taut away from the side you just heat sealed, pull it taut and keep tacking it all around. You should get to the point of having it tacked and taut all the way around, and then you can go over it with the heat iron sealing and shrinking it. I strongly urge you to check out the youtube videos. BriandKilby 05-Sep-11 18:44 thanks xanadu, i'll give it a shot. Please sign in to comment on this image.
