well, I am in the midst of starting to cover a new plane and want to do something along the lines of the top covering ripping off t o expose the bare metal underneath. I could do the vast majority in monokote(choice of covering) and just airbrush the details. But I havent heard anything to promising on the procedure.

Maybe scuff up the monokote with a lite grit piece of scotchbrite and then airbrush, then clearcote, I just dont want to clearcote the whole surface/plane. I even thought about covering it in clear and then airbrushing...I dont know we'll see.

Keep the hints coming in!
