Apologies to everyone. I left dialup for modern communication back

years before Clinton won office (in the last century). I thought that

was the thing to do since Gore invented the internet. I didn't think

some were still in the wilderness.

Thanks Tim. The joke is on me.... I will get the string and tin can out

now.

Thanks for the kind words. I feel bad for forgetting our 'dialup'

members. Wow, those were the days. Dual bonded ISDN. I was also

intending to post to Tim, who has been great at keeping up the notes on

his RV-10 University site.

I am going to send Tim some pictures of poor alodine, primer, topcoat

and long term damage to metal airplanes. We do Heavy Checks at Alaska

Air Group every 5,000 flight hours which is a lifetime for an RV-10.

Ask Tim about the airplane wiring information which he has not posted

yet. It was even larger in detail.

Phil - price is a great motivator, but the penny pinchers should be

comfortable with the ability (inability) to color match into the future

for panel touchup and redue.

N410RV got a composite canopy replacement last year with the newer

improved door combination reinstalled. The yellow repaint could be

identified from the original from 50 feet away. I am sure VAN stayed

loyal to his single source paint supplier. The RV-10 specified: Valspar

Solar System Sunthane 852Y1018L Yellow. Maybe the painter slipped and

used leftover yellow from an RV7 or RV9A. Two ways to get it wrong out

of three choices. Another solution is buy 150% of the material you

believe you will need from the cheaper supplier. Date tag the can.

Metallic's can be even more challenging based on humidity, temperature,

component mixture ratios and gun technique. Most painters don't record

that stuff and most touchup can be too easily seen. Lighting and

environmental control is much more important at the quality end of the

light spectrum.
