[NSRCA-discussion] Looking for a how-to article

I seem to remember him using K&B Superpoxy clear (no longer made). I'm
pretty sure Don's method would be lighter yet.

Thanks. As I remember Roy applied the cloth with a paint product rather than
epoxy as part of the finishing process.
I will certainly check out the DVD. I expect it has many things of interest.

Jim,
It's not quite the article you're looking for, but Don Ramsey has an
excellent DVD on applying a lightweight painted finish to wings. I vaguely
remember the Speights article and I think Don's methods are similar, if not
identical. They involve lightweight 3/4 oz (or less) glass cloth and thinned
epoxy. I can't imagine a lighter method for a painted wing. If that's what
you have in mind, I'd suggest you pick up a copy of Don's DVD. I think
they're available on his Barnstormer web site.

Hope this helps

Help, here is a memory check for you long time members.
Quite some years ago Roy Speights wrote an article on how to apply a
lightweight painted finish to wings. I would like a copy of the article but
don't know where to start looking. It may have been in the K-Factor during
his vice presidency in 1989 & 90 but I no longer have those issues.
Thanks
Jim
