I also think most of them are using exterior house paint. I plan to use both techniques when I get to that point. I refer you to Stewart's web site videos that explain the glueing process.

I should have used "extlerior Latex house paint." I refer you to an article written by Julius Junge in the January 2013 issue of the Pietenpol Newsletter.

Instead of moving on to the wing spar, I plan on working on the tail feathers next as I have the wood (thanks again to Dave Aldrich) for that. It may be a while before I do the spars and attach the ribs. I know that I need to seal the wood at some point, and I thought I had read it was better to attach to the spar and then seal the wood so as to have a good glue seal between the ribs and the spar. So my question is this - can I/should I seal the ribs, but not where the wood attaches to the spar, or just not worry about it for now? If I leave them unsealed, should I leave them in the house, as opposed to the unheated uncooled workshop? Thanks in advance for the answers. -------- Semper Fi, Terry Hand Athens, GA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=396047#396047 ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 05:44:32 PM PST US Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Almost Finished With Wing Ribs From: Jack Terry don't sweat it for now unless you plan to store them out in the elements uncovered. I actually think its good for the wood to breath and continue the drying process. I'm covering the tail currently. A couple of years ago I finished the tail and then varnished. Before covering I re-torqued the hinges. It took a couple turns on the wrench to do so.
