It would be a crime to use anything except Green Lexan on top with that beautiful paint job.   EDMO

I painted this plane with Randolf Ranthane flexable polyurathane, Tampa green metalic with about 2 pints of toner added. This was painted over the original Polytone paint after serface prep. Polyton is compatable with only Ranthan, Airothane, or more Polytone. The flames were made with a metalic gold base coat then covered with tinted and flex aditive clearcoat, wich was polyurathane as well. Ive painted several other fabric planes with Randolf and am very impressed with its ability to stay flexable and adhere to metal and fiberglass, aluminum parts. Ive had this paint left over in a cup and it dryed to a hockey puck, just like a supper ball, and stayed like that years later.
