You were too polite to mention a good product for avoiding this problem. As David Joyce has said eloquently in this month's "Light Aviation" (August 2012) the SmartASS is a good solution to this problem.

I have just received a new batch of resin and standard hardener from Europa. when I mixed a batch this afternoon it appears to me that the hardener has had a skin formed on it or it has a contaminant in it as there appear to be long strands of something within the hardener that pours out when mixing the resin and hardener. Can anyone advise if this is normal as when doing a trial layup these strands can be seen within the lay ups. I have attached a photo showing the strands just after pouring into the resin. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this.

They told me to filter it out which I did but was not prepaired to use it anyway. Give Tony a ring at Marineware on 02380 330208, they will replace it FOC As they did with mine, Steve, # No.630 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=380539#380539 ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 11:07:39 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: Dimensions and source fuel filler pipe rubber? From: "zwakie" Thanks Barry, I will have a look at those silicone hoses. Today I did a more in-depth examination, and it turned out that (instead of the rubber joining the tank and aluminium elbow of the filler) the rubber joint between fuel-return line/tank breather and the tank was the one leaking. After taking that rubber off, I noticed that appr. 30% (!) of the inner-lining was having severe cracks. No wonder the smell of fuel had increased lately, and it started to leak... Hopefully the smell fuel will be gone (or substantially decreased) now I have a new rubber joint in place... A valuable lesson learnt: make sure rubber hoses are in tip-top shape, if in doubt, replace them! I will still have to replace the rubber joint between tank and aluminium elbow of the filler, if only because I am not 100% sure of the condition of it's inner lining and I don't have records of when this was replaced last... -------- Marcel (Europa Classic Tri-Gear PH-MZW) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=380540#380540 ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 11:08:23 AM PST US Subject: Re: Europa-List: Re: ampreg 21 Hardner From: Donald Cameron Hi Steve Many thanks for your reply its much appreciated.
