As long as coatings are being discussed, I'd like to mention the coatings
from Stewart Systems. I know that Polyfiber works but I had/have a huge
problem with the MEK or one of the solvents in it. I can only use it for a
very short time and my eyes start to feel very dry and irritated, a feeling
that lasts for days even if the shop is well ventilated. I decided to try
Stewart Systems line of water borne product and so far I couldn't be
happier. The support has been excellent the price has been good and I have
no problem being around and in contact with any of the products. I've found
the whole line to be easy to use. There is no doubt Polyfiber is the
standard, but the alternatives have worked out better for me.

FWIW...MEK a.k.a. M. E. K. (said as the three letters) -
Methyl-Ethyl-Keytone is a pure organic chemical... MEK is in itself a
powerful solvent and reactions to it are common. The greatest care to avoid
the fumes should be taken and having a bath in the stuff should be reserved
for very nasty people. If you have to use the stuff you might want to
consider a full hood with a remote air source.

I'll second that. Now that I'm in the process of covering, I can assure you
I will never use that other stuff again. Stewart Systems is ten times
easier to use, there's no volital chemicals and there's no odor. Clean up
is a cinch. That other stuff has such a strong odor it about chokes me now
to even be around where it is being used. Stewart's is now STC'd and will
soon become the standard for aircraft covering. You'll also save several
pounds in the finished weight. NO, I don't work for the company and have no
ties other than being a satisfied user of the product.

Let me add also that the customer support form all the gang at Stewart's is
like I've never seen before. There are NO hazmat shipping cost on any ot
the Stewart products.

Don,
Ceconite is the fabric of choice for the Stewart System. I am not sure if the Cecobond glue is the same or if the Stewart glues have been reformulated to better suit their finish coats. That is a question for Doug or Dan.
