My plastic wear strip is cracking and breaking up as well on my flaps.
When I pull off the pieces a sizable residue of adhesive is left that
needs to be removed. Has anyone figured out what works to remove that
adhesive?
Thanks,
Ron Vandervort RV-6 1470 hrs. always hangared too.

Subject: UHMW tape yellowing

SNIP <<<<<
The clear UHMW flap tape on my always-hangared ten year old 6A is
yellowing and peeling at the edges. Can this tape be removed without
also taking off the aircraft-specific paint? Sorry, I don't remember
the brand of paint.

I pulled it back in a couple of areas and it seemed to separate fine
but
I would like to hear from someone who "has been there" before
attempting
to remove it all.

The present tape came from Vans and I would like to replace it with
their reasonably-priced clear UHMW. Otherwise I'll go shopping for
white UHMW. >>>>>SNIP

We carry 4" wide 3M paint protection film that is perfect for this
purpose. It's
reasonably priced, removable, and will never yellow. $2.45/foot.

Once again, it's removable up to at least 5 years later with NO mess.
I use it
on my Rocket around the fairings, flaps, etc. And it will NOT yellow.
Ever.
You'll find many uses for it. Good stuff.

I'm replacing the vacuum pump on my O-360 A1A and recall that someone
posted a
reminder on the list not long ago that the vacuum pump oil seal should
be replaced
at the same time. Does anyone have more information on that, like part
number,
source, and how?

Rocketmeister-

My catalog shows this part as STD-2217.

Aviall probably has it.

Good luck

I've used something called Goof-off in the paint department of Lowes or Home Depot. It's citrus based but test it someplace first to make sure. Turns the adhesive into a gooey mess that can be scraped off with a plastic squeegee. There is also a 5 inch circular eraser material available from an automotive body shop supply house that is used in a drill and will remove decals and pinstripes as well as the remaining adhesive.
