<DIV><FONT face=Arial>So this stuff is fuel proof? Does it mix with a
hardener or just cure with heat and water evaportation? I'm skeptical that
something that doesn't crosslink can be fuel proof, but maybe this stuff
actually cures into polymer chains like polyU glue?</FONT></DIV>

size=3>I have clear coated a few planes for a friend of mine who uses the
createx stuff. I just used an automotive two pack clear coat. It comes up ok
but is very dependent on the skill of the 'createx' applicator! If it is
applied to dry and the prep work sucks-no amount of clear coat will make it
look good.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=518443201-12122005><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#0000ff
size=3>Infact I was blamed for the paint job!!! Nowadays-he takes his planes
to a professional auto shop-and they charge him a packet of money with the
same result. Works for me as its less possible exposure to the nasty
stuff.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

minimize the clear as it now no longer serves as a fuel proofing

<DIV> Nat over the last couple of years I have been playing with
Createx Auto Airs <A
href="http://www.autoaircolors.com/">http://www.autoaircolors.com/</A> they
are water base paints that is used for airbrushing although they do need a
clear coat to bring to a shine. They are extremely light and easy to use
they just look dull as applied. They can be mixed and matched to anything
and have 128 colors to choose from, theres a dealer you'll find on there
dealer page called Dixie Art Supply in New Orleans <A
href="http://www.dixieart.com/CreatexAutoAir.html">http://www.dixieart.com/CreatexAutoAir.html</A> I
have only cleared with Lustre Kote which is not recomended by them, but
maybe for the electrics you won't need the clear. Good luck.</DIV>
