Robert, Ceconite (or any dacron fabric, for that matter,
does NOT requuire any annual tests for deterioration. Robert Little wrote: Yes, RAZORBACK FABRIC is still producing for the govt. and anyone else that wants a permanent fabric covering that does not require any annual tests for deterioration as all other fabrics do. It does weigh more than most GA fabrics in use at 3.6 oz/yrd but that weight is required on fast, heavy and aerobatic aircraft (see AC 43.13-1B). Even at that, it is still 17% lighter than Grade A and 300% stronger and being made of 100% silica glass fabric, it does not burn, rot, or deteriorate in acid rain or UV. It is still the only authorized synthetic fabric for use by our military under T.O.1-1A-11 and we sell quite a bit to several militaries each year. It is applied using the blanket method using butyrate dope to cement it, taunten it and to seal it. After that, you can top coat it with what ever you want. The finished product is cheaper than polyesters and is considered permanent by the FAA. It is FAA-PMA'd, FAA-STC'd, MIL SPEC and ISO 9002. If you haven't heard of it, that's okay, because we don't over-charge in order to pay for million dollar ads in the magazines. If interested, drop us a line. Sincerely, Robert T.

Stits (Polyfiber) versus Airtech versus Superflite versus Blue River (Aircraft Finishing Systems) Are there any more? We're thinking about abandoning Polyfiber and going to Airtech and want expecially to hear testimony about Airtech. It's supposed to filter out UV rather than reflect it like Polyfiber does with the aluminum flake paint called Polyspray. And it appears not to be as labor-intensive as Polyfiber. http://airtechcoatings.com/fabricdummies.html BTW, if ol' BoOb from M-Zoora hadda known about UV his harness wuddna fell apart. BTW2, we have a ragwing Piper here with Blue River on it. Gack! Oldcopper, young fella, I tried to be on topic this time. That dadburn wallerin' M-Zoora porker is always a vexatious distractin' influence, disturbin' all the good subjects. And he couldn't even build a pigpen fit to hold a fat sow in. So he has flew for 5 or 6 decades, but think how much DDT and parquat he's huffed. |
