Good morning all.

As per the assembly manual, just pulled a rag soaked in "Tube Seal"

through the rudder and elevator spars.

Pretty goopy stuff.

so I figure that when it comes time to chromate the spar ends that

accept
the spar caps, the added shear bonus of the chromate will be lost because
of a less-than-perfect bond between the spar cap barrel, and the end of the
spar, due to the oily "Tube Seal."

Any ideas on what to use to clean the "tube seal" just from the ends of

the spar so that the chromate will bond to clean dry metal on the spar cap
and the the end of the spar itself??

Thanx all

I just waited untill the rudder and elevators were finished then used an
eye
dropper to put tube seal into the spar through the hinge bolt hole, put
the
bolt in and slosh it around.
