[NSRCA-discussion] Cleaners

Jim,

If I had it my way the trailer would be hooked to the pickup every day the sun would shine.  'Cept then the boss would know the real reason why I have to leave work early.

    This is so blasphemes.....   my eyes are burning.

    I look at like this: 

    1. My primary plane is like the Sports car that gets garaged every day an polished every weekend.
    2. The backup is like the pickup and sits outside (in the trailer).

      I'm with you Ron. I think of pattern airplanes only as tools, not works of art.

        I don't believe in pampering my airplanes, so I don't wax them. If you start pampering an airplane, first thing you know, it'll want a new glow plug every flying session, a new prop or a new type of fuel with higher nitro content. 


        I think of my airplanes as pickup trucks. I expect them to be ready to go, no matter how badly I treat them. An airplane should be grateful when you charge the batteries every week or so or use an old cleaning rag to wipe areas you touch to pick them up so you don't get oil on your hands.

          Speaking of wax, has anyone tried reshrinking Monokote after it has been waxed? Did you have trouble doing it?

            I've gotten good results with a mix of 40% rubbing alcohol, 60% tap water,
            applied via spray bottle. What really helps, is a coat of automotive
            "spray and wipe" wax, once or twice a year. Makes the painted and covered
            surfaces much easier to clean.
