Whenever the term
glue is written you should rely
upon your experience to decide what type of glue to use.
When a specific type of adhesive works best for that step,
the instructions will make a recommendation.
•
Whenever just
epoxy is specified you may use either
30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy
or 6-minute epoxy. When
30-minute epoxy is specified it is highly recommended that
you use only 30-minute (or 45-minute) epoxy, because you
will need the working time and/or the additional strength.

The Lancair is factory-covered with Top Flite
MonoKote
®
film. Should repairs ever be required, MonoKote
can be patched with additional MonoKote purchased
separately. MonoKote is packaged in six-foot rolls, but some
hobby shops also sell it by the foot. If only a small piece of
MonoKote is needed for a minor patch, perhaps a fellow
modeler would give you some. MonoKote is applied with a
model airplane covering iron, but in an emergency a regular
iron could be used. A roll of MonoKote includes full
instructions for application. Following are the colors used on
this model and order numbers for six foot rolls.
White–TOPQ0204, Black–TOPQ0208
Sapphire Blue–TOPQ0226, Metallic Gold–TOPQ0404
Fuse = Fuselage
Stab = Horizontal Stabilizer
