Dave: I have used AFS primer on my -10 for interior mating surfaces, and am very satisfied with it. Can't speak to the long-term effectiveness, or its suitability under their finish coatings, but they seem to be a reputable firm.

Group,
I searched Matronics and VansAirforce on AFS primer. My questions are:
1) Do you use it? If yes why? If not, why not? YES. NON-TOXIC IN THE GARAGE.
2) On a scale of zero to ten do you think it is good? One being worse than
no primer; Two being equivalent to no primer; Four being as good as SW988;
Six beings as good Var-prime; and ten being as good as epoxy. I RATE IT A FIVE
3) It seems that AFS is really a fabric covering company. Does anyone know
if they have any major customers like Boeing or has any of the majors tested
it?
4) Is there any long term tests?
5) Any other thoughts?
I like the idea of it being more environmentally friendly to me, but there
does not seem to be a lot of information out there. I am a bit concerned it
not having a SW or PPG name on it. You would think that these companies would
have come up with something similar.
I plan on calling them tomorrow with similar questions.
Thanks
Dave Syvertson
