minwax

Good afternoon!I just finished building an FT Bushwhacker! Even though I’m by no means an artist, I’m proud of the work!🙂 I’ve gotten some positive feedback regarding this paint scheme and it made me want to start a thread on decorating our planes and ultimately, bringing more color and...

i was wondering about people's experiences with minwax on dtfb for waterproofing. i have a couple varieties in the basement (one can of wood stain and one spray can kind) and a few projects that i want to waterproof so i can fly in winter. i want to see what works best and good ways to use it...

Hey all, I am using minwax for the first time on my Cessna build. I am wondering if poster board is to be minwaxed as well. I did a test run on a spare piece and it really soaked in quickly and made the poster board somewhat transparent. I want to use spray paint in the end. What are your...

This is my 7th scratch build from the flite test downloads, by far the pride of my mini fleet! The baby blender v2 was the best flying plane for my growing skill level to date but when I purchased the 2" spinner I knew I had to build a proper spitfire! So here it is, after I put the wing and...

I've been looking at the videos on how to seal foam board with Minwax, and would like to do it to my FT3D and upcoming builds, but have a few questions I don't see answers to. Ideally, it seems to make more sense to keep the foam whole while applying (as in the FT video) to ensure i don't miss...

Greetings everyone! First post. =D I just LOVE the FliteTest show. (As of three weeks ago. :D ) Anyhow, a friend of mine is thinking about building the FT duster. He's just getting into the hobby, and winter is approaching here in Wisconsin. Thus my question is, how well does foam board hold...
