Model Aircraft CoveringVibrant Durable Finish for Aircraft
Give your RC airplane a brilliant finish with Hangar 9 UltraCote Fluorescent Violet, a high-tech polyester covering engineered for ultimate durability and ease of application. Featuring a unique multi-temperature controlled adhesive and shrinkage system, this covering allows precise repositioning and smooth contouring around tight curves and wingtips. Fuel-proof and incredibly lightweight, it delivers a professional scale appearance without adding unnecessary weight to your model aircraft.
Engineered Covering FilmAdvanced Heat Contouring and Durability
The Hangar 9 UltraCote Fluorescent Violet utilizes a patented polymerizing process that permanently fuses vibrant color directly to the high-strength polyester film covering. This advanced process prevents color-layer separation while allowing modelers to easily reposition the film during application on balsa or composite airframes. Engineered to withstand glow fuel, gasoline, and smoke oil, as well as full water exposure, this premium RC airplane covering film guarantees long-lasting protection and vibrant visibility. With an initial wood adhesion temperature range of 200–220°F and maximum shrinkage achieved at 350°F, UltraCote provides the control needed for a drum-tight, wrinkle-free finish on complex wing geometries and tail surfaces.
