[rebel-builders] Preping surfaces to cover

Post by Wayne G. O'Shea » Sun Feb 19, 2012 11:16 am

NO! Glue it on and go !

Of course be sure no corrosion on anything before you start. Wipe everything
clean with acetone and then glue the fabric on.

I am covering my ailerons with the Poly-Fiber method.

It says to wash all the aluminum parts with Poly-Fiber E-2310 Phosphoric
Acid
Etch and Brightner with a Scotch Bright pad.

Then wash with the E-2300 Conversion coating.

Then prime with Poly-Fiber EP-420 Epoxy Primer.

Then I can start to cover.

Is all of this necessary?

I used scotch brite then acetone then EP420 epoxy primer.
No conversion coating and no phosphoric acid etch.

If you use primer it must be epoxy and have time to harden so that the
other chemicals don't dissolve it.

Why the epoxy primer if you were going to cover it?

To slow corrosion. You won't be alive when that's an issue IMHO

After looking at the Poly-Fiber manual, I think these instructions refer
to prepping aluminum for painting, not for prep under fabric.
