RE-SHRINKING THE COVERING
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. 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
colors to over shrink and pull away leaving sightly gaps on the color lines.
The trim stripes are especially vulnerable to over shrinking.
5) Your model is covered with Oracover® white #10
