In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler.

After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

It may take several tries to completely remove the bubble\/blemish, but this method works great.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClean Up:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\" size=\"2\"\u003eThe adhesive can be removed from the iron or model using acetone or a mild thinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horizonhobby.com\/on\/demandware.static\/-\/Sites-horizon-master\/default\/Scene7Images\/GT_HAN_logo_Last_New2.jpg\" alt=\"Hangar 9 Fly First Class logo\" width=\"287\" height=\"103\" align=\"bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-mb-6 mb-4 col-12 spec-col-solo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-responsive d-flex justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table table-striped\" style=\"width: 535px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eCovering Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eNo Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eColor Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eOpaque\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eProduct Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e60 Centimetres (23.5 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eBrushed Aluminum\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eProduct Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e.3 oz per sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"specKey\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eProduct Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e2 Metres (78 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hangar 9","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39953501290576,"sku":"HANU906","price":70.3,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/6694\/9968\/products\/HANU906_A0_WJHK6H9I.jpg?v=1666855080"},{"product_id":"ultracote-orange-2m","title":"UltraCote Orange, 2m, Hangar 9","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHangar 9 - HANU877\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHangar 9® UltraCote® is a high tech polyester covering that features a unique multi temperature-controlled adhesive and shrinkage system, making it versatile and easy to apply.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

It may take several tries to completely remove the bubble\/blemish, but this method works great.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClean Up:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\" size=\"2\"\u003eThe adhesive can be removed from the iron or model using acetone or a mild thinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horizonhobby.com\/on\/demandware.static\/-\/Sites-horizon-master\/default\/Scene7Images\/GT_HAN_logo_Last_New2.jpg\" alt=\"Hangar 9 Fly First Class logo\" width=\"287\" height=\"103\" align=\"bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-mb-6 mb-4 col-12 spec-col-solo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-responsive d-flex justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table table-striped\" style=\"width: 535px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eCovering Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eNo Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eColor Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eOpaque\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eProduct Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e60 Centimetres (23.5 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eOrange\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eProduct Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e.3 oz per sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"specKey\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" style=\"width: 237.9px;\"\u003eProduct Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e2 Metres (78 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hangar 9","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39953504075856,"sku":"HANU877","price":49.4,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/6694\/9968\/products\/HANU877_A0_DS1IKFV1.jpg?v=1666855283"},{"product_id":"ultracote-deep-red-2m","title":"UltraCote Deep Red, 2m, Hangar 9","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHangar 9 - HANU871\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHangar 9® UltraCote® is a high tech polyester covering that features a unique multi temperature-controlled adhesive and shrinkage system, making it versatile and easy to apply.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

It may take several tries to completely remove the bubble\/blemish, but this method works great.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClean Up:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\" style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eThe adhesive can be removed from the iron or model using acetone or a mild thinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Hangar 9 Fly First Class logo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horizonhobby.com\/on\/demandware.static\/-\/Sites-horizon-master\/default\/Scene7Images\/GT_HAN_logo_Last_New2.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" width=\"287\" height=\"103\" align=\"bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-mb-6 mb-4 col-12 spec-col-solo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-responsive d-flex justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table table-striped\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduct Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e60 Centimetres (23.5 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eColor Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTransparent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCovering Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNo Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduct Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2 Metres (78 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrange\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"specKey\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduct Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e.3 oz per sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hangar 9","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39953506664528,"sku":"HANU951","price":49.4,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/6694\/9968\/products\/HANU951_A0_CUISBFIX.jpg?v=1666855819"},{"product_id":"ultracote-transparent-red-2m","title":"UltraCote Transparent Red, 2m, Hangar 9","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHangar 9 - HANU950\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHangar 9® UltraCote® is a high tech polyester covering that features a unique multi temperature-controlled adhesive and shrinkage system, making it versatile and easy to apply.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

It may take several tries to completely remove the bubble\/blemish, but this method works great.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClean Up:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\" size=\"2\"\u003eThe adhesive can be removed from the iron or model using acetone or a mild thinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horizonhobby.com\/on\/demandware.static\/-\/Sites-horizon-master\/default\/Scene7Images\/GT_HAN_logo_Last_New2.jpg\" alt=\"Hangar 9 Fly First Class logo\" width=\"287\" height=\"103\" align=\"bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-mb-6 mb-4 col-12 spec-col-solo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-responsive d-flex justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003ctable data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"table table-striped\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e60 Centimetres (23.5 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eColor Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTransparent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eCovering Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNo Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2 Metres (78 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRed\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"specKey\"\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e.3 oz per sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hangar 9","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39953509122128,"sku":"HANU950","price":49.4,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/6694\/9968\/products\/HANU950_A0_JBDWT79P.jpg?v=1666856136"},{"product_id":"ultracote-deep-pink-2m","title":"UltraCote Deep Pink, 2m, Hangar 9","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHangar 9 - HANU867\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHangar 9® UltraCote® is a high tech polyester covering that features a unique multi temperature-controlled adhesive and shrinkage system, making it versatile and easy to apply.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

It may take several tries to completely remove the bubble\/blemish, but this method works great.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClean Up:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\" style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eThe adhesive can be removed from the iron or model using acetone or a mild thinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Hangar 9 Fly First Class logo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horizonhobby.com\/on\/demandware.static\/-\/Sites-horizon-master\/default\/Scene7Images\/GT_HAN_logo_Last_New2.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" width=\"287\" height=\"103\" align=\"bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-mb-6 mb-4 col-12 spec-col-solo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-responsive d-flex justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 535px;\" class=\"table table-striped\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 237.9px;\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eCovering Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eNo Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 237.9px;\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eColor Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eOpaque\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 237.9px;\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e60 Centimetres (23.5 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 237.9px;\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003eTrue Red\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 237.9px;\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e.3 oz per sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"specKey\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 237.9px;\" class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 280.1px;\"\u003e2 Metres (78 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hangar 9","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40110965325904,"sku":"HANU866","price":49.4,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/6694\/9968\/products\/HANU866_A0_1O2GD9T8.jpg?v=1679701875"},{"product_id":"ultracote-parklite-flame-red","title":"UltraCote ParkLite Flame Red, 2m, Hangar 9","description":"\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"consumerWebCopy\"\u003eOverview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wrapDiv\" id=\"consumerWebCopyDiv\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHangar 9® is bringing its UltraCote® line of covering to indoor and outdoor electric lightweight aircraft with ParkLite®.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler.

After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler.

After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd bgcolor=\"#cccccc\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd bgcolor=\"#cccccc\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler.

As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd bgcolor=\"#cccccc\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd bgcolor=\"#cccccc\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

Preset the iron to 300°F. Pull and stretch the covering around the wing tip while applying heat with the iron. Remember, UltraCote® can be carefully lifted and repositioned to help eliminate wrinkles. This feature is beneficial, especially when covering sharply curved wing tips.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd bgcolor=\"#cccccc\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" colspan=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

In order for the covering to properly adhere to a surface, the surface must first be smooth and clean. Sand the model using a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper, with the final sanding being done with 320 grit paper. Vacuum away all of the dust, as specks of dust under the covering will leave unsightly bumps. Fill gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote® (such as white or yellow), use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent the filler from showing through.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 123px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"height: 123px; width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003ePro Tip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003e -\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;\" size=\"2\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"\u003eSome professional builders “raise the grain” then sand a second time with 320 or 400 grit paper for the ultimate finish. After the model is sanded, use a damp cloth to wipe down the model. Some modelers prefer to use a fine-mist squirt bottle filled with water to dampen the surfaces to be covered. As the surface dries, imbedded wood fibers in the surface will “stand up.” When dry, sand the surfaces again using 320 or 400 grit paper. Raising the grain now and sanding it off will prevent the grain from raising later under the covering, creating a bumpy finish.

It may take several tries to completely remove the bubble\/blemish, but this method works great.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClean Up:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\" size=\"2\"\u003eThe adhesive can be removed from the iron or model using acetone or a mild thinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"width: 535px;\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horizonhobby.com\/on\/demandware.static\/-\/Sites-horizon-master\/default\/Scene7Images\/GT_HAN_logo_Last_New2.jpg\" alt=\"Hangar 9 Fly First Class logo\" width=\"287\" height=\"103\" align=\"bottom\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row product-specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-mb-6 mb-4 col-12 spec-col-solo\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-responsive d-flex justify-content-center\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"table table-striped\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eCovering Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eColor Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpaque\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 Centimetres (23.5 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFluorescent Red\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.3 oz per sq ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"specKey\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"spec-value\"\u003eProduct Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 Metres (78 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hangar 9","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41141387886672,"sku":"HANU890","price":66.2,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/6694\/9968\/files\/HANU890_A0_S1C2IO4Z.jpg?v=1743821520"},{"product_id":"ultratrim-white-2m-long-x-9-5cm-wide-hangar-9-copy","title":"UltraTrim Black, Hangar 9","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHangar 9 -
