Frequently Asked QuestionsEverything you need to know
Can Hangar 9 UltraCote ParkLite - Flame Red be used on foam RC planes?
No, Hangar 9 UltraCote ParkLite - Flame Red is not suitable for foam models because the heat required for shrinking (up to 350°F) will melt foam structures. It is specifically formulated for balsa and wooden aircraft.
What heat settings should I use for Hangar 9 UltraCote ParkLite - Flame Red?
Use an iron set to 200°F to activate the adhesive and attach the film to the structure. Increase the iron temperature to 280°F to begin shrinking, and do not exceed 350°F, which is the maximum shrinkage temperature.
How much weight does Hangar 9 UltraCote ParkLite - Flame Red add to a model?
Hangar 9 UltraCote ParkLite - Flame Red weighs just 1.07 ounces per square yard (36 grams per square meter) and is 13 microns thick, making it extremely lightweight for micro and park flyer RC aircraft.
