I applied two coats of Helmsman's spar varnish on my wings, tail surfaces and everythingthat would be covered. It is supposed to be good stuff. On areas thatwill be exposed or visible, I am using System 3's marine grade varnish...it is supposed to have superior UV protectors and it goes on clear (not yellowish),so the wood really looks beautiful. The other major difference... Helmsman's = $15 at Home Depot or other home improvement stores.System 3 = $40 at Woodcraft or other wood working or marine stores. Mileage may vary... this is just what I've found.--------Mark ChouinardWings, Center Section and Empannage and Fuse framed up - Working on Landing GearRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Blakesburg

Paul,I used Poly Fiber throughout. I stuck to what the manual said. We had used Stittsduring the original build and it held up great so I decided to use what proveddurable to me. The Spar varnish and Chromate primer were the weak pointsover the years. But in 1971 that is all that was available. It has been 11 years since the rebuild now and still looks almost new. I wouldchoose to do it the same way again.BTW, Stitts and Poly Fiber are the same product.Your results may vary,--------Scott LiefeldFlying N11MS since March 1972Steel TubeC-85-12Wire WheelsBrodhead in 1996Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Blakesburg

I dropped of a sheet of 4130 x .032 to a friend of mine who owns a steel fabricationshop, and he asked if I could use another kind of steel than 4130. He askedbecause he said he had plentiful amounts of 1010 sheet steel in varying quantities,and he said if I wanted to compensate for the strength differences,he thought I could cut the rest out of stock he has on hand if I wanted.As metal is my weakness here (in experience level), I am wondering what you folksthink about this, outside of my knee-jerk reaction to say "No" just becauseit's not sold at ACS or Wicks... My bird will have extra wing area, and yet weight is still important, but whatother points might I need to consider if I looked at using another steel asidefrom 4130?
