Title: painting over a repair
Post by: Jim Morris on July 17, 2022, 06:54:00 PM

Hi all, I bumped my airplane a while back and just got the repairs going. Vector arf that I covered fuslage with silkspan and lustercote. Since Lustercote is no longer available, what can be used to paint over the repaired fuselage that wont attack the original paint and be somewhat fuel proof? Thanks in advance.

Klass Kote for sure; maybe also Rustoleum, but I'm not 100% sure
