    Subject: Araldite 420
    From: "flyingphil2" <ptiller@lolacars.com>
    Hi, Has anyone had this problem before? I've been using some Araldite 420, which is in date and I believe has been stored correctly. I've mixed some up twice now and despite mixing it thoroughly for quite a while, I'm left with some very small 'flakes' of 420A (the yellow paste). When I say small I mean about 1mm in diameter. I was painting the glue on some metal parts and I managed to get most of the flakes off the part but it was a struggle. The glue has gone off and set hard but I can see some of these yellow flakes in certain areas which I've ground out. Prior to mixing the second batch, I put the 420A in the airing cupboard for a bit to warm up but I still had the same problem. Has this glue got a problem and if so, can I rectify it or do I need to get a new can? Anyone know what I've done wrong if it does have a problem? Thanks, Phil Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=333714#333714

    OK back to the topic! Installed hoses, fittings and elbows as Jim suggested (many thanks to him who organized for me all the hardware). Worked very well during summer... But after 1.5 year and winters like -20C... The brake is again an issue. Got a new master cylinder from Europa but it leaks! (the second one from Europa that I get that has leaks). So I cannot anymore contemplate a master cylinder from Europa (or Kart components) in my plane without a reservoir. I am inclined to go for the master cylinder on the sick from MDO... But still prefer to use one hand for the stick and one hand for the brake. Never change a winning team :-) Someone who has a working and reliable solution? Thanks, Jacques.

    Phill, Place the yellow goo with the can in a pan of water. Bring it to a boil and keep an eye on it. It will soften and as it does stir till it turns back into it's original condition without the flakes. Regards, Jeff R.

    Hi! Phil The yellow paste of the premix Redux can be reactivated by carefully melting it down. Do it gradually and stir it well whilst melting into a liquid. When finished allow to cool and you should find all the crystals have returned to the bulk and you should be left with the thick creamy original texture.

    Jeff / Bob, Thanks for your replies, I'll give that a go. Any ideas why this happens? Is it age or did I store it too cold or something? Regards, Phil Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=333739#333739

    Hi! Phil. I believe it is short term ageing nothing more serious perhaps a bit like honey . Heating it up gives it a new life.

    Subject: left wing airleron quick dosconnect - disaster?
    For the collective wisdom In an effort to align the left wing aileron quick connect (reposition page 27/16 in the manual) I inadvertently ground out about 1/4 '' from the upper glass of the spar - that is to say the spar has a ply core with glass upper and lower parts. I ground away the upper glass part. Is this a disaster? Will
