All,

I need to finish the wheel pants – and the top and bottom intersection fairing from Van’s are so bad that I either need to spend a lot of time reworking them or buy replacements.

I note that Cleaveland tool sells these fairings: http://www.cleavelandtoolstore.com/prodinfo.asp?number=RV10IF4
They look to be the same product as: http://rvbits.mybigcommerce.com/products/RV10-INTERSECTION-FAIRINGS.html

I also heard the fairings Van’s is now sending out are better.

Recommendations?

Carl, I had a problem with one of mine.... can't remember what it was... maybe I lost it..... anyway, I ended up making up one from scratch fitting it right to the bottom of the plane. It's lighter and fits perfectly... should have done them both. Just used clay.

Cleveland does resell Jan's fairings. I just got a pair and there is no comparison with the set I got from Vans. My wife has been assisting with sanding filler. Once she saw the state of the Vans fairing, she immediately agreed it was a worthwhile investment.

Trim to fit; new fairings just like the old. I replaced one after a bird strike.

I've always wondered if they are fiberglass or some other form of plastic. Do you know what they are made of?

Make your own.

Collision wrap
Black Christy's plumbing tape
Modeling clay
Release wax
7 once loose weave fiberglass
3 once satin weave fiberglass.
West Systems slow set epoxy
Aluminum sheet flashing

Use the wheel faring, the leg faring and the underside of the fuselage as your mold in addition to the above items.
The parts come out perfect, fit like a glove and are light and do not crack like the ones Van's sells because with the Van's ones you need to use so much filler to make the fit. Filler is weak, heavy and looks like crap.

John G 409. Engine run up. Plane complete including paint, 98 percent done!
