No, clear coat over it to make it more glossy.

No, you said on post #76 that matte works better.

Paints better over untreated foam.

Oh, like as far as bubbling or not sanding it?

Delaminating and less transparent.

Delaminating and less transparent.

I still have some makers foam left so I don't really have to worry about delamination. and I use MinWax for when I use DTFB and after two coats I don't have delamination and I can probably do 3 - 6 planes out of one pint of it and it only costs $10 so its very affordable and its worth it too me.

Does it let off fumes?

Does it let off fumes?

Its mainly not such a great smell, like a rubbery smell. But its not nearly as bad as paint. Maybe like paint in a can but less?

Just make sure if you end up getting it that you get the oil based stuff. they have it on Amazon, Walmart and at our Ace Hardware. That's what my brother used on his Arrow. Just be sure to apply it thick enough.

He will be using it on his Simple Cub so you will be able to see the results.

Sorry for the late response! Oh, they are coming.....@Mr Mans has had some pieces which are a little off so we are figuring that out. My Master Series one I started last night, and it's going great! Will have pictures later!

 

[Houndpup Rc]

Okay sorry for how long its taken me to reply! Here's my build thread of my MS Corsair! I am starting with the fuselage because I am still trying to figure out what I am going to do for the wing spars.
So here is my very front nose section glued together.

Here are two of my tail sections glued together.

Here is my nose section completed.

Here I have my middle section formed and glued.

I now have my nose section glued to my middle fuselage section.

I now have the first former installed in the canopy section.

Here is my canopy in progress.

Here I have my canopy completed.

Here are my two fuselage sections ready to join.

Here is my fuselage joined.

Then I got the tape removed.

Here is my horizontal stabilizer glued and the bevel cut.

Here is my vertical stabilizer with BBQ installed.

I then got the tail feathers and servos installed.

And here is the fuselage pretty much done, it looks very clean!

 

[Houndpup Rc]

To who it may concern I updated post #94 (the last post).

 

[Jo's squadron]

Nice clean work!
