At the recent Orlando R.O.C.K. NAR section launch we had two new fliers, Jason Dembroski and Art Almquist.
PLEASE NOTE: Other colors of Con-Tact brand paper might be "re-positionable, not permanant. This black, chalkboard material is permanant. Be sure to look for Con-tact Paper for Arts and Crafts.
Growing up, I knew the Contact Paper brand. But I only associated it with my Mother, covering a shelf or lining the bottom of a drawer.
This is Jason with with his two stage Red Star from Red River rocketry.
Jason is a great builder and designer. He knows how to make smooth transitions and epoxy fillets.
The upper stage of the Red Star is stock, but he added a ringed booster made from the first stage of a Quest Navaho.
Take a close look all the black details.
I asked what he used for masking. He said he didn't mask at all.
Here's what he used:
If I don't have to mask, I won't! I'd rather use colored electrical tape or Monokote trim.
This black, self adhesive Contact paper is so much cheaper than anything else out there. With my 40% off coupon from Michael's, I bought a 6 feet X 18 inch roll for $4.47! This could be a lifetime supply.

Jason used the matte finish Chalkboard cover. It's very thin and the flat black with a slight texture looked great on this rocket.
I can see it being used on rockets like the Taurus, Skyhook stripes, bands on the Mark and even the trim stripes on the Hawk glider.
