The automotive refinish industry has looked at this option. About the
only thing keeping us from using it is public acceptance. We don't like to buy "new" things. BTW boat shrink wrap comes in a few colors and is plenty large enough to cover a wing, or a whole glider. Heat set adhesives are available to turn it into a heavy duty version of Monokote. Several ultralights have used similar covering materials and methods, Tedlar on the original Lazair being the most notable. I have tested the shrink wrap method on some ulatalight control surfaces and am satisfied enough that it is a viable method, below 80 knots or so, that I may try it as a replacement for the 1.7 oz Dacron the next time I cover an experimental. ============== Leon McAtee |
