> Have some Neubie Painting questions:
What type of primers can be used over composites?
What type of top coats can be used over composite primer?
We are not looking for a nice ultimate finish. Not show stopper quality that if
hangar rash hurt, or trailer transport scuffed, you would feel terrable, and
would
need an expert to repair.
Thinking prettty hard about painting ourselves, so when anything happens we can
repair.
One option is to rent some space at an already set up spray booth.
I am a hot Air Balloonist. More than half of my flying is done at the break of
dawn.
Heard of an old timer IA who used to store fuse, or wings in a garage or hangar
with
a bit of heat so it was warmer than outside. He would wait till high pressure
was
overhead and it was dead still in the AM. Would bring out the item to be painted
and
paint outdoors with dew still on ground. Pollen and dust would be held in
obeyance.
Finished planes are told to me to look aweful nice , with very minimal debris
in
surface.
Granted you need to spray when conditions cooperate, but is this a feasable
technique for an europa?
As far as smaller stuff, not composite, thinking pretty hard about self etching
Dupont 615S Variprime (use real good gloves) and Dupont Imron (have real good
fresh
air source) using a homemade spray booth using furnace filters and 220V fans in
my
garage.
Are there any parts on the Europa that self etching primer may effect thier
structural integrity?
Is Dupont Imron an acceptable final coat for composites?
Sincerly
