Hi Mick,

I do not prep my Diacov before painting, and no problem, but it is apparently recommended for you to do by the manufacturer. So up to you :)

No need for Balsa Lock etc. This is full size stuff, that thing stick like nothing else :)

Now, that depend if you use Diacov or Diatex. Diacov have the glue backing, Diatex doesn't and you need to brush the glue on the surface
