With respect - I am not convinced the above is correct when it comes to polystyrene (Styrofoam?). --------------- Stev, As I also build large model aircraft, We use a layer of glass and epoxy straight onto the foam, then press and let dry the balsa or veneer and come up with a very very strong finish, We then glass again to seal, or cover with cloth material, depending on aircraft type.and size and weight required.
I fly a friends 1/2 scale 100cc Corby Starlet built is way, it is 10 years + old, and gets flown like a Pitts special. never had any problems.
