Solarfilm Solarfilm 150.12 - SOLARSUPER POLYESTER-2M-DKBLUE

Solarfilm Solarsuper Polyester is a self-adhesive iron-on plastic film designed for use in model making, particularly for remote-controlled (R/C) aircraft and similar applications. Presented in a striking dark blue shade and available in various roll lengths, this film is notable for its high durability and professional quality finish.

Key Material Properties

Manufactured from polyester, this film exhibits a high shrink property when heated, allowing it to tightly conform to complex shapes such as wingtips and engine cowls. The material's pliability when heated enables it to stretch smoothly, providing not only an elegant appearance but also structural benefits. Importantly, it offers excellent resistance to all common fuels used in model aviation, including glow fuel, diesel, and petrol.

Versatile Applications for Multiple Model Types

Solarsuper Polyester is suitable for covering all kinds of R/C models. On open frame structures, it delivers greater rigidity compared to regular Solarfilm, making the models more robust. With careful temperature control, it can also be used on foam veneer surfaces, giving builders flexibility in their construction projects.

Ease of Application and Decoration Options

One of the main advantages of this product is the ease of application. It is ironed on using a low-temperature setting, which minimizes the risk of damage to sensitive materials. Beyond its basic covering features, it can be painted with Solarlac paints for custom colors or further enhanced with decorative Solartrim for tailored aesthetics.
