MessagePlease describe the Windex method...

Also, I'm not the smartest guy on the block here, but what is the best way to apply the trim solvent. I'm covering my son's trainer, and probably got a bit more detailed than I should have. But it's what he wanted... ;^ )

  For mono over mono, or mono over ultra, use the Windex method. No bubbles, ever.

    It would appear that Mr.Kababjian is absolutely correct. I just went and tried it out. 
    With Monokote you get one shot to position things and if you miss by the slightest amount you're cooked. The bond is good for eternity. 
    On the Ultra the stuff discolors the surface and the bond can be pulled apart for quite a significant period of time. 
    In my expereience, Ultra over Ultra is way easier than Mono! If you keep one end up in the air and work from the opposite end with an iron, it goes down with absolutely no bubbles. The same technique can be used with Mono and the same results can be achieved, but I can only perform this on a solid surface. On open bay wings I cannot get a bubbleless application. 
    People have commented "how did you do that without any bubbles?", but I can see 'em!!!!
