How to Protect Your Expensive Sailplane or Pylon Racer

On By hajek

Simple strips of clear or color matched self-adhesive vinyl can be the difference between a good day and a ruined day.

Clean-up the bottom of your model using denatured alcohol and apply vinyl in places where the bottom of the fuselage can come in contact with the ground. If needed, multiple overlaying layers will help even more with rough or rocky terrain. Once the tape is damaged, simply remove and replace it.
