I use Avery Full Sheet Label paper. It is self adhesive and goes on like big decal. Simply cut the label to the shape of the raw fin ,apply the label, break the edges with 220 grit. You can then shape the air foil of the fin and lastly seal the edges with CA. Only takes about 10 minutes looks great painted and holds up well to normal use.
How long is this going to last? I've got stuff (envelopes, computer disks, etc.) that have Avery labels falling off because the glue dried up. This has happened on both porous and nonporous materials. Maybe the odds are that the rocket will get lost before the glue goes bad...
