View Full Version : Next Time I Do Fabric Work on an Airplane

I'll use Airtech, not Stits, now known as Polyfiber. The latter is a great
process, don't get me wrong. It's just that Airtech is better, simpler,
easier and produces superior results. *And* it lasts and lasts. Take a
look at a 10- or 15-year-old Airtech cover and you'll see why.
As for the Stits manual by Goldenbum, it's a little like tight pants on a
shapely woman: What it reveals is helpful but what it conceals is
fundamental.
Thank goodness for competition. If Goldenbum went around buying up
competitors like Brunton did, we'd be in a fix.

Have you heard of anyone using the Hipec system? I have heard good things
about it, but am trying to hear from anyone who has used it.

Do you have any idea what you happen to be driveling? And when's the last
time you covered anything, other than the hole in your outhouse?

Stits my Pacer and loved it.

Yeah.
But, please do not put me in his class just because
I do, O-ring. I kinda like being your "hero". :o)
Latchless Larry has a 'hard-on' for Brunton
that does not deserve to be expanded upon.

Latchless..
You just don't know when to shut up.
Your mouth is overloading you ass again,
O-ring has forgotten more than you ever know about fabric....
or anything else for that matter.

I don't give a damn if he's the Queen of Patchouly. He needs to read the
manual before he opens his mouth.

Pot.... kettle... black.
Have it your way. BUT --
When it comes to engaging brain before placing
mouth into gear.....
Seems you cannot interact successfully flapping
your gums in ordering items as simple as latches or
a... friggin' battery. One would think after screwing
up such simple tasks that one would have the
good sense and judgment NOT to rat themselves
out here WORLWIDE after farking up to the max.
No sense of embarrassment, shame or judgment or
perspective? Throw in your particular class of bile
and you become pure entertainment and fodder
as outstanding cretin and buffoon of r.a.h.
Just fer grins....
How many OSH awards have you garnered
with your superior knowledge, skill set and
bilious big mouth?

Dunno, Larry. 21 years after my airplane's first flight, it won a trophy
at Arlington. Stits cover, not touched since it was applied about 1980.
Still not looking too bad, with only minor cracking at a few locations.
