Ultimate Aircraft FinishTransform Your Scale Model RC Plane
Give your balsa wood model aircraft a professional finish with Hangar 9 UltraCote Turquoise covering film. Designed specifically for RC plane builders, this high-tech polyester covering features an advanced multi-temperature system that makes covering wings and fuselages effortless.
Precision Multi-Temperature CoveringProfessional Results Made Simple
The Hangar 9 UltraCote Turquoise covering film uses a patented polymerizing process that permanently fuses color directly to the polyester film. This completely eliminates color-layer separation while allowing modelers to easily reposition the film on balsa wood airframes. Its unique ability to both shrink and stretch makes going around tight wingtips and curved surfaces seamless and wrinkle-free.
Featuring a multi-temperature control system, application adhesion begins at 200°F to 220°F without premature shrinking. Shrinkage onset occurs at 300°F, reaching maximum tightening at 350°F. Fully fuel-proof against glow fuel, gasoline, and smoke oil, Hangar 9 UltraCote Turquoise provides an ultralight, durable, and waterproof finish for your favorite scale model aircraft.
