Thanks for the responces guys. Maybe I'll try a test sample and see if
I can get it to work in a heated paint booth to speed up the dry time.

<br><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>stuff is labeled urethane paint, but
differs from the stuff that Tony</font></font>
<br><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>sells in that it is a no mix catalyzed

Does anybody know if it adheres well</font></font>
<br><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>and if it is totally fuel-proof?</font></font>
<br><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>Quisical,</font></font>

<p><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>Yeah, Georgie, I used the stuff 20+
years ago to paint my flight box. It took about 3 days to dry on bare wood.
It isn't catalyzed in the typical sense; there's no additive catalyzer,
in other words. Good ol' air dry does the trick. But it took maybe a month
or maybe more before the paint was really fully set</font></font>
<p><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>The paint has stood up well over the
years, but it won't stand up to pure fuel exposure for prolonged periods,
but then again, not much of what we have today does. Where's the KB epoxy
paint when you need it? Am still using the box today and has not been repainted,
but could use a fresh coat</font></font>
<p><font face="Arial"><font size=-1>Anyway, around same time frame, I painted
iron-on fabric covered airframe with the paint and found it to be
heavier than what we have today. That could have been as much technique
as paint. The stuff is pretty durable but is photosensitive; it yellows
with time as all one part urethanes do</font></font>
