My question is can you use polyester body filler over an epoxy finish? I am using Evercoat Extreme Gold body filler on my RV10 fiberglass cabin top. The area I am curious about is the epoxy glass layup at the bottom of the window to cowl area. Do you know if this is OK on the epoxy layup or will I have to mix epoxy and micro-balloons for the fill?

Sure, pick them up if it's that convenient. I think I fit the doors in a couple of long weekends, then fiddling with the latch mechanisms, hinges, opener shocks, etc. was fun -- but then I tend to get obsessed. Still, I doubt if you can spend a whole summer on them! I just did the 45> on the edges, but next time I'll probably go with the tape/build up edges trick described here earlier. Get the windows as well, since that can really firm the doors up and change the fit (so put them in with the doors closed and latched). And don't try to saw the plexi -- the cut off die grinder worked great for me.

He asked me what happens if they leak? I told him about the green wicking loctite that is commonly used for leaks. He then began to tell me at his work they work on 1000psi fuel pumps which are tested for leaks. If they leak, they use the green loctite. He told me it works great for the high pressure leaks. That made me feel a lot better if they leak in three weeks when I test them. It also made me believe it would make others out there who are working on the tanks or will work on the tanks feel better about fixing leaks on the fuel tanks. -------- Cust. #40936 A&P, ATP typed CE-525(s), CE-500 RV-10 FUEL TANKS N801VR reserved Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=244333#244333 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv10-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV10-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv10-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv10-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
