You can also use copier machine toner if you any of that around. It doesn't take
much to color the epoxy.

I noticed on McMaster Carr while looking up the Viton brakes seals, they
also offer a silicone seal with a wider temp range, and similar
hardness. Any reason to not use silicone seals in the brakes?

Unless they give you a durometer spec equal to the Viton, most silicone
is softer and less desirable in this application. I use flourosilicone
o-rings for fuel caps, but there is no sliding piston like a brake caliper.

| Subject: | Andair Fuel Caps, New Engraving Products, Updated International |
Shipping info for all RVers overseas, Kitplanehoses.com, and Secret Squirrel
Department
Good evening everyone. Hope you all had a great time at Oshkosh. For
those of you who were unable to attend, I am sure you were there in spirit.
We have been busy here at Aircraft Specialty, and wanted to announce a few
things.
1. We are now a US Distributor for Andair Locking Fuel Caps. Andair is
based in England, and makes extremely high quality caps. The best part is
that they are retrofittable into the standard RV flange. This allows you
to retrofit locking caps to your tank without having to make any
modifications, other than to proseal the Andair flange inside the Van's
flange. We also offer fuel cap engraving for the andair caps. The major
advantage here is that since we are a distributor, we are able to engrave
the caps onsite and then ship them out to you. This saves you the hassle
of having to purchase caps and then send them out to be engraved. We are
offering the Andair caps for *$154/set (plain), $194/set (engraved), and
$199/set (engraved with color fill)*. These caps can be found at *
www.aircraftspecialty.com/rvproducts.html*
2. We are also offering polishing of the standard Vans fuel caps at a very
reasonable rate. If you go to *www.aircraftspecialty.com/engraving.html*,
click on the fuel caps, and then click on "FOR INFORMATION ON USHER FUEL
CAP POLISHING". You will see pictures of the difference between the
polished and unpolished caps. This in an option we offer as an addition to
our fuel cap engraving. *The cost is $30/set of two caps.*
3. Finally, we have updated our shipping rates for our international
customers. We ship mostly via the Post Office, and you can expect to
receive your items within 10 business days. Normally it goes quicker, but
that is the maximum that it should take. You no longer have to call us for
an international shipping quote.
4. Thanks to all of you that have purchased hoses from www.kitplanehoses.com.
We appreciate it, and will continue to provide top quality fuel and brake
hoses at very reasonable prices. I have received a lot of positive
feedback about our ordering process, but wanted to open it up to you. If
you have any suggestions on what would make ordering hoses easier or more
convenient, please feel free to let me know. Also, for those of you who
live overseas, this ordering is also available with accurate shipping
quotes at *www.kitplanehoses.com* Feel free to contact me at *
steve@aircraftspecialty.com* with comments.
5. We also wanted to let everyone know that we are currently working on a
few very innovative products that will be reasonably priced and will
greatly enhance your RV. We are always working on innovating new things,
but want to make sure they are tested and perfect before we release them
for sale. As always, if any of you have any ideas on something that you
would absolutely like to have, we are happy to work with builders to
develop new items that might benefit the RV community.
Fly safe and thanks again for all your patronage.

| Subject: | Cork Gaskets For Comant CI122 VHF Antennas |
Does anyone have a good source for the cork gaskets used with the Comant CI 122
VHF Com antennas? When I removed them from the old RV-8 fuselage, I must have
put them in a very "safe" place and now I can't find them anywhere. Guess they're
pretty safe. Anyway, I need to order a couple more but I checked the Chief,
Pacific Coast Avionics, and ACS web pages and found the antennas but no
references to just ordering the cork gaskets.

Probably easiest to visit your friendly National Air Parts Store or
AirplaneZone for a roll of cork gasket material and cut yourself ones
to fit. Nothing special about those gaskets.
