 Posted: Wed Nov 24, 2010 10:36 pm Post subject: Zinc Chromate? |
 |
|
I have some abraded areas on my fuse frame (FS1). The paint/primer/sealer
stuff on there now is a greenish color. Is it safe to assume this is zinc
chromate?
I need to touch it up- where do you suppose I should go to get some more
paint? What kind should I use? Will spray on one part stuff stick to 2-part?
Should I get 2-part zinc chromate primer? I really only need a very little
and didn't want to invest heavily in the stuff. Maybe if you-all concur it
is zinc chromate, maybe a local flier has some left over. I unnerstan this
stuff costs lots to ship as it is a hazardous material.
Thanks

George, The problem with any one part paint is it is easy prey for solvents. If you have to do a fabric repair the solvent in the glue will ruin the paint and the fabric won't stick. Almost any epoxy primer is resistant to solvent once it is fully cured. O'Reilly's Auto parts stocks a line of epoxy primers that can be bought in qts and is about half the price of Polyfiber's epoxy primer. When I talked with the engineer at the company whose products O'Reilly's sells he assured me of its ability to withstand even MEK.
