I’m getting ready to attach the front fuselage skins and was wondering if I should use Proseal at the firewall like I did on the bottom skin.  

   

Thanks,

Absolutely.  Keep that CO out of the cabin.

Sean,

  

     Better check the0 plans!!!!  The cowl attach hinges go in that rivet line I think.  You0 can pro-seal when you place the hinges but you better wait till0 then.  Look at the rivet call-outs on page 28-19, there are none called for0 on the firewall/skin yet..

Understood, John, but shouldn't I use Proseal at the access point between the firewall and the skins?  I don't plan to rivet until the hinges are installed and don't see how I would get Proseal between the skins later.



Thanks,

I had a QB fuse, and had a similar dilema.  I used proseal in the

notches around the forward side of the firewall, and then put a

fillet inside too.  It would be nice to get some between the

skins, but to serve the purpose of sealing CO, that should do

fine.  If you got it between the skins...just a super thin

layer, it would possibly keep moisture out better.  You could

probably put just the tiniest bit in and cleco it and still

rivet it at a later date.

Tim is right.  My point about the pro-seal was to be aware where the hinges 

go so as not to creat a big mess that will need clean-up later.  I think a 

nice bead of the stuff in the joint between the inside of the skin and the 

firewall would do nicely to seal.  Should have been more specific but was 

heading back to the office when I read the first post.....john
