Coming from the RC hobby, I was just thinking this week why no one uses monokote. Especially for fins. If you are going to paper them anyway, why not apply some nice mono or ultrakote. It's lite comes in plenty of colors. Granted it's not as cheap as paint but you could still use it for trim and patterns over paint with a little 3M77. I also have a bunch of different colored lite packing tape that I used to cover foam wings that would go in excess of 130mph. It's tough, lite and easy to apply. I think it would be great for covering fins.
What do you experts think? Am I way off base here?
