Maybe they changed the name at one point and >I have some 'old' rolls? Or is it that some colors are called 'Super' and >others are simply the 'regular' stuff? I believe Monokote was the original covering way back in time. I seem to recall someone telling me that the adhesive was pressure-sensitive, i.e. it was more like FasCal and not an iron-on. Super Monokote was the improved product that came out some time after- wards. Perhaps the name reverted to Monokote after Great Planes bought out Top Flite. (Speculation here - I've never bought full rolls of the stuff so I don't know for sure). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iskandar Taib | The only thing worse than Peach ala Internet: NTAIB@SILVER.UCS.INDIANA.EDU | Frog is Frog ala Peach Bitnet: NTAIB@IUBACS !
