No, the film shouldn't be on the top. The sheets of lexan are supplied with the film on one side, and because of the way the moulds are made, the film always ends up on the outside. Because the wing is moulded inside-out compared to the body (otherwise you would not get the endplates sticking up), the film ends up on the wrong side of the wing relative to painting.
So you just take it off and re-mask the other surface of the wing, I just use masking tape.
