Covering Adhesives for RC Airplanes
Covering adhesives prepare a structure and bond covering materials to it, whether you are applying iron-on film to balsa or finishing a foam surface. This category collects adhesives and sealers used in the covering stage of a build.
Film and Balsa Preparation
Coverite Balsarite in its film formula seals and primes balsa so that heat-activated films adhere reliably at the edges, while Sig STIX-IT is a brush-on covering adhesive offered in half-pint and pint sizes for attaching film and fabric.
Foam Finishing
For foam models, Deluxe Materials Foam Finish is available in gloss and matte, giving a surface coat suited to foam rather than open balsa. Choosing the right product depends on the covering and the material underneath, since a sealer meant for film will behave differently from a foam-safe finish. Reading the product notes before you start helps you plan the covering sequence from bare structure to finished surface.
