Windex is definitely the best of those three. I’ve had very good
results with even semi large pieces (maybe 4” wide...anything wider and
I’ll typically only do one layer). Don’t skimp on the windex.
Both layers of monokote have to be clean...any dust will show up as a
bump under the film. I coat both the piece I’m putting down, as
well as the surface I’m putting it on, with a brush. Spraying it
doesn’t get enough on (unless you go crazy) and just creates a million
air bubbles rather than a smooth film of liquid. I have it sloppy
wet...then slide the pieces into position, and I use a small 4” shower
squeegee to squeeze the windex out. You’ll have zero bubbles...and
it will adhere from suction pretty aggressively. Yes...you’ll have
a wet mess so a few paper towels are in order. Wait at least 24
hours and then use an iron set just warm enough to anchor Monokote to Monokote
without any shrinking.<br>
<br>
If you heat it too soon (same day) there’s enough moisture still trapped
between the two layers that you’ll vaporize it and cause a bazillion
bubbles. <br>

too cold to build. Is it possible to put monokote on top of monokote and
get decent results? Tried the poke holes and windex/soap methods and not
impressed with the results. Any other ideas?<br>

Temperature in low 30's. It's cold! It's also too cold to build, shop is cold.
Stay inside where it's warm.<br>
