| Okay so, is the red "rubbed" off or chemically removed? (acetone or something like it) |

Revised covering. 2.5 in tape works better. Also it is UL approved! |

| um... we used to use Pepsodent on the model cars... works just like paste wax... wax on... wax off... |

| The tape is coming off. Re do! Wider tape. Follow the model panels. Trying to duplicate scale lines and covering the model panels will result in too many lines. Bill, thanks for the toothpaste idea. What brand?? |

Covering with Al duct tape. Figgured I would give it a try. If I do not like the results, I can remove it and paint. |

| While handling the fuse for sheeting, every stringer broke. I had to repair and reinforce them all. |

A word about this kit. While the laser cut balsa is top shelf the dimensional lumber was the worst balsa ever, make Guillows look top shelf. I contacted the manufacturer. He stated that I must have acquired a bad batch...better luck next time! |
