  • Top Flite Monokote

    I have read that a few years ago there was a problem getting Konokote to shrink. Anyone know if that is still a problem. Thanks. Gary

    The military flat colors have had issues with needing a very tight temperature range to shrink. JUST short of the point where you melt a hole in the covering. I have not heard of or had any issues with other colors. Its something they had to do to the Mylar film to make it flat instead of glossy. The adhesive is the color and the normal Mylar is effectively a thick glossy clear coat.
