    I applied two coats of Helmsman's spar varnish on my wings, tail surfaces and everything that would be covered. It is supposed to be good stuff. On areas that will 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.

    This is really a loaded question, unfortunately... The first question that needs to be answered is what system you're going to use to cover you plane. As it turns out, as far as I can tell, if you're using poly fiber stuff, you need an "epoxy varnish", as the MEK used in that system attacks normal varnishes during its application. Varnish used to be a clue as to what the finish was... no so much anymore. So to make a long story short, check with the manufacturer of your covering system and see what's compatible. Of course, you can use two different varnishes depending whether or not it comes in contact. Otherwise, I've found the most "normal" finish available through major retailers is as good as anything. I just recently used some hinky cool high priced stuff through a high end retailer (woodcraft or somebody) and got hugely burned. Unless it's a really obvious finish (like danish oil, tung oil, shellac, lacquer, etc.) you don't really know if it's real varnish, or some sort of polymerized something or another so only experience will tell if it's really suitable. Generally speaking, from over 25 years of experience, the finishes available these days are really very good and well exceed ANYTHING available back in the thirties, so don't worry too much about it. I've found if you can find something that'll be available for enough years that you can reapply some corporate knowledge, you'll like it.

    Subject: Re: first piet piece done
    FAR 45 Subpart C spells it all out=85. According to 45.22(b), since a Pietenpol is a US registered aircraft that is amateur built and which has the same external configuration as an aircraft built at least 30 years ago it may be operated without displaying marks in accordance with 45.21 and 45.23 through 45.33=85.how does that address items brought up in this thread? If you display the N number using only the capital letter N and registration number, you must have the EXPERIMENTAL placards displayed near each entrance to the cockpit. If you display your N number as NX and the registration you do not need to place any EXPERIMENTAL placards in either cockpit; the fact that the aircraft is experimental is communicated by the N number being displayed as NX and the number (and your little amateur built tag). This is allowed because of the "same external configuration as an aircraft built 30 years ago" provision. 45.22(b)(1) specifies that the registration marks be displayed at least two inches high on each side of the fuselage or vertical tail surface consisting of the Roman capital letter N *followed by*=85=85it does not specify whether it has to be "followed by" either vertically or horizontally. 45.25(b)(1) does specify horizontally, however 45.22(b) exempts you from that because of the 30 years or older provision. Markings must be in accordance with 45.21(c), which states they have to be permanently affixed, have no ornamentation, contrast in color with the background, and be legible. "Ornamentation" is not specifically defined, so I would say since they did not provide a definition as to what the administrator THINKS it means, you would have to go by the dictionary definition. Using that definition of what it means to be ornamented, a Fed or their rep could take issue with the J=85.but since it contrasts in color and is legible you can argue right back. 45.29 contains various requirements regarding height, width, spacing, uniformity=85=85but the 30 years or older provision exempts you from the requirements of that section as well=85.

    Subject: Re: whats the best varnish to use
    With the "Latex Corvair Rocket" we used Helmsman Spar Urethane only-throu ghout the whole structure, and after 6+ years and 314+ hrs of flying have h ad no problems (using the Ceco-Bond Fabric System which is water based).- And as others have said, if you use poly fiber process you will need to us e epoxy varnish where the fabric glues to the structure. I am currently bui lding an all wood aerobatic biplane, and have used Minwax spar urethane on the complete structure, but I am applying 2-3 coats of poly fiber epoxy var nish where the fabric will glue to the structure.- The Epoxy can be appli ed over the Spar Urethane, but make sure the 1st coat of epoxy is a light c oat so it wont lift the urethane off the wood.- The only advantage to usi ng the hardware store Spar Urethane is a big cost savings (mabey $200-300 f or the whole airplane).- In my oppinion, it is worth only buying as much epoxy varnish as you need for areas that come in contact with the fabric, the spar urethane is much less toxic, and faster and eaiser to use, the ep oxy varnish is a 3 part, base, activor, and thinner.- It is much easier t o just open a can and varnish what you need to, than guess how much epoxy v arnish to mix up, and worry about wasting it when doing small jobs. - - Just My oppinion, Shad --- On Sun, 8/12/12, V Groah <vgroah@hotmail.com> wrote: From: V Groah <vgroah@hotmail.com> Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Re: whats the best varnish to use We used the spar varnish on-the parts that are covered to seal the-wood .- On the-areas that show, like inside the cockpit we used PPG automoti ve clear coat.- It is made-for a durable finish coat with UV protection and is tough.- Makes a great finish,-used three-coats. sanded betwee n coats. -A bit expensive.- Vic NX414MV - > Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: whats the best varnish to use > From: hangar10@cox.net > Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2012 13:26:26 -0700 > To: pietenpol-list@matronics.com > > > I applied two coats of Helmsman's spar varnish on my wings, tail surfaces and everything that would be covered.

    I was able to get a couple flights in the piet today.- Ohio was blessed w ith highs in the low 80's-high 70's this weekend.- I got to fly a little bit of formation time with a friend of mine who just brought home his new S pacewalker 2.- I have always admired the Spacewalker as a kid building an d flying model airplanes. I never thought I would be flying along side a fu ll scale one in the likes of a pietenpol when I was a star eyed kid who had to mow lawns all summer just to buy enough balsa wood to finish a RC Model 'er set of plans I got for my birthday.- - Keep dreaming, keep building, and then start flying, You get there befor yo u know it! - Shad do not archive
