Post by: JHildreth on August 01, 2017, 08:11:08 PM

        Is KlassKote Paint too brittle to use over open bays?

Joe, I had a profile carrier airplane that was covered with Polyspan and nitrate, then finished with Klasskote. After a while, there was some fine cracking around some of the edges of some of the open bays. Knowing the quality of your work, you would probably find it unacceptable. I have wondered if any of the automotive flex additives would work in Klasskote, but have not tried it.

Joe,

Why were you thinking KlassKote Paint?

I am interested in using KlassKote because it is thoroughly fuel proof and nowhere near as toxic as auto clear coats.
