I need to do a repair to the wing of my 3W extra and want to match the covering. I'm pretty sure its Ultracote becouse I got just about every MonoKote Red and can't match it. Called A.I. and he didn't know, said he'd call me back, but maybe someone here know for sure now. Thanks BFC |

The Patty is L3. But wings, stabs and rudder are not painted.

The Level 3 airplanes in scale schemes like the Patty are painted on the fuse and usually the rudder but the wings and stabs are covered in Oracover Stick which has an adhesive backing so it sticks better and will not bubble or wrinkle in the sun. The color codes are exactly the same as Ultracote, I believe you are looking for True Red. Chris

Definitely not "True Red". The color has much more of a pink tint. I'll be able to use this roll of covering on a different project but I'm still stuck on this repair. Any one who has actually done a repair to a 3W Patty wing? |
