NO, NO, NO. All bets are off if you try this at 400 Celsius. At 375 to 400 Fahrenheit, the normal temperature for powder coating, no harm is done. Best regards, Rob Housman A070 The benefit of the Eu

I paid US$80 to get my nose gear assembly and main gear legs powder coated commercially at a local shop; the shop did the prep which I think was grit blast but probably also included a solvent de-gre

Have the coater mask any areas that will be in contact with other pieces for two reasons: the stuff will flake or chip, and it is very thick, or at least thick enough to that it could cause a fit pro

It's a rather long time since I did these particular layups but, in general, the manual is what I shall charitably call cavalier about being consistent (and in worse ways than cm vs mm). Measure twic

When confronting either a questionable sequence of operations or a doubtful dimension that prompts me to think, "This can't be right!" I bring it to the factory's attention, but lesser quibbles I jus

I too tried the reamer trick, using exactly the procedure described below by Cliff, but in my case I had to go more oversize than I felt was wise. A hand reamer allows better control than one driven

Valid concern, but easily addressed. I believe I learned this trick from the instructions that came with the "antenna kit" I bought from RST (a roll of tape and a handful of ferrite donuts). Wrap the

It isn't a big deal. All it requires is a bit of trial and error to get the fit right after the stern post is installed, and then repair the "damage" by covering the exposed foam with more epoxy-fibe
