thunder gull j model paint

Hi,
The paint on my J model has also cracked, right along the ribs of the rear
fuselage near the propeller. It obviously is caused by the pressure changes
from the propeller as it spins. I have the Polyfiber coating system on it.
Mark said that he usually puts some mylar strips under the fabric and over
the ribs to prevent the problem. I put some plastic tape on the surface to
cover the cracked paint, which seems to be holding up so far.
