Overview: UltraCote by Hangar 9 is a high tech polyester covering featuring a unique multi temperature-controlled adhesive and shrinkage system, making it versatile and easy to apply. Its patented polymerizing process permanently fuses the color to the polyester film covering, eliminating the possibilities of color-layer separation and allowing for easy repositioning on your model. UltraCote's superior ability to both shrink and stretch makes it ideal for navigating tight curves and wingtips. Temperature ranges for adhesion, shrinkage onset, and maximum shrinkage are as follows: 200-220°F, 300°F, and 350°F, respectively.

Detailed Information: Surface Preparation: The quality of the covering job is directly impacted by the finish of the surface it is applied to. To ensure proper adhesion, the surface must be smooth and clean. Use a sanding block and progressively finer sandpaper to sand the model, finishing with 320-grit paper. It is important to vacuum away all dust, as any specks of dust under the covering can cause unsightly bumps. Fill any gaps and dents with a high-quality filler. If using light-colored UltraCote, such as white or yellow, use a tan-colored filler that matches the wood color to prevent it from showing through.
