The Great Planes Seawind ARF 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 is the color used on this
model and order number for a six foot roll.
White – TOPQ0204

The stabilizer and wing incidences and engine thrust
angles have been factory-built into this model. However,
some technically minded modelers may wish to check these
measurements anyway. To view this information visit the
web site at
www.greatplanes.com and click on “Technical
Data.” Due to manufacturing tolerances which will have little
or no effect on the way your model will fly, please expect
slight deviations between your model and the published
values.
