Someone once covered a Decathlon with Monokote, the stuff RC modelers use for

Wow! That would be really expensive! Not to mention the narrow rolls, unless
he made a deal to buy wider, longer rolls.

I also wonder if it was a problem with it stretching when it is out in the hot
sun for a long time, like models sometimes have happen.

It is tough stuff, and easy to apply, and no finishing. It still wouldn't be
worth it, to me.
