OK. So I put a rock through the bottom of my horizontal stabilizer
landing my Husky up in Wyoming (hunting gophers). I repaired it with duct tape which got me home, and I patched it with fabric and painted it. It is about a 12" x 12" repair. My mechanic signed off on the annual with the repair so it is airworthy. But...it's not cosmetically so good. Now I think I can buy the fabric, fabric "tape", and manage to take the piece off and re-fabric it. The part I am not sure of is the painting. All I know is the final coats of paint will be what is on the rest of the plane which is a polyurethane (the two part stuff), PPG Insignia White. But what do I put on top of the fabric and before the paint (silver etc)? Has anyone ever painted fabric with a polyurethane? What are the steps or where do I find out? Thanks |
