I know this is probably common knowledge to most of you, but maybe someone could benefit from a tutorial on how I laminate my foamboard airplanes. You can laminate an entire foam board airplane for about one dollar.
1. I use Duck brand shelf liner and 3M 77 spray adhesive from Wal-Mart. The shelf liner is already self-adhesive, but the 3M gives it a even better grip. Apply just a very light mist of the spray adhesive to one side of the part and let it air dry for 15-20 minutes.
2. Tape the shelf liner to your work surface making sure it is completely flat. Pull back the backing paper.
3. Place the part to be laminated down on the sticky side of the shelf liner and press firmly.
4. Trim around the part with a razor blade or hobby knife. I leave enough material to wrap around leading edges or adjoining sides of the fuselage.
5. Go around just the edges with an iron set on low heat to make it look really nice.
