COVERING MATERIAL
Your MAYHEM 40 ARF has been professionally covered with SIG
AEROKOTE™ polyester film covering.
The colors are:
# STL100 White
# STL311 Red
# STL250 Blue
# STL201 Black.
You may notice that some wrinkles might develop in the covering
after removing the parts from their plastic bags. If that is the case,
there is no need to be alarmed. This is perfectly normal in low
humidity climates. Your model was built and covered in a part of
the world with relatively high humidity and therefore the wood was
likely carrying a fair amount of moisture. When exposed to drier air,
the wood typically loses this moisture, dimensionally "shrinking"
slightly in the process. In turn, this causes the wrinkles.
Any wrinkles that appear in the covering material are easy to
remove by using a standard hobby-type heat iron. We suggest
covering the iron's shoe with a thin cotton cloth, such as an old
T-shirt, to prevent scratching the covering film.
