Monokote

Monokote
MonoKote is commercially available light weight plastic shrink wrap film available in various color schemes with an adhesive on one side, used to cover and form the surfaces of a model aircraft. The material is cut to size and applied to the airframe surfaces using a hobby iron or heat gun. TopFlite Monokote covering film is made by General Formulations in Sparta MI 49345 and is exclusively sold and/or distributed by Hobbico Inc 2904 Research Road, Champaign, IL 61822 and their subsidiaries.
The name MonoKote, a registered trademark of golfball manufacturer Top Flite, alludes to monocoque, a type of stressed skin airframe construction. The patent for Top Flite Monokote is held by Sidney Axlerod[1]
Monokote is also a type of fireproofing material, which is gypsum-based and is spray-applied.
