<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Jim. There is another way to reduce the
weight of each panel by 1.5 ounces -- use a twice as light covering.
Ultracote transparent lite is half the weight of regular monocote or
ultracote. There is no extra work involved, and no reduction in
strength. I am using this on my Supreme. It looks "unique", but it
is lighter. I used it on my Partner stab to remove every last gram in the
tail, and it has held up as good as monocote. It is just as easy to work
with, and it does not lift. In fact, I think it bonds to wood better than
monocote. It still bubles if your iron is too hot. No more than
200F. You can buy it at Horizon in a variety of colors, and transparent
white looks pretty nice. While it is transparent, the colors over
sheeting are not pale and provide good contrast. </FONT></DIV>
