1) Open you kit slowly and take care not to damage any parts
of the kit. Remove all parts from their plastic protective bags
for inspection. Before doing any assembly or installation of any
decals, it is very important to re-shrink or re-tighten the already
applied covering. The PC-6 is covered with Oracover®. Due to
the shipping process, heat and humidity changes from different
climates, the covering may become lose and wrinkle in the sun.
If you take the time to re-tighten the covering, you’ll be rewarded
with a long lasting beautifully covered model.
2) Using your covering iron with a soft sock, gently apply
pressure and rub in the covering. If any bubbles occur, your iron
may be too hot.
Reduce heat and work slowly.
3) If bubbles persist, use a small pin to punch holes in the
bubble to relieve trapped air and reheat.
4) Use your heat gun with extreme caution. Take care not to
apply too much heat to one area for long periods of time. This
may cause the trim colours to over shrink and pull away leaving
sightly gaps on the colour lines. The trim stripes are especially
vulnerable to over shrinking.
Your Ecotop Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter ARF is covered with Oracover® White #01621-10, Turquoise # 01621-
17 and Orange #01621-60
