I just bought from a local fabric store, a piece of black, felt like

looks nice, feels nice and no reflexion..
Some people use, black vinyl,, that is good too...
Much better than paint....

_*Don't use black vinyl!*_ The sun will heat it up and the vinyl esters
will come out of it and eventually cause your plexi glass to craze.
Paint it flat back. Cloth will hold a lot of dirt and dust and make more
work for you keeping it clean.
Cheers
Norman

| Subject: | hot/cool air vent & painting question |
Two questions:
1. has anyone used the hot/cool air selector offered by Van's and, if so,
how well does it work and where are you getting the cool air from?
2. what are people using for a stand for painting wings and /or fuselage?
Thanks for any info.

Bert,
Have you had the felt stuff on for long? Felt seems like it would snag and
or nub up from sliding stuff on the dash. I tend to put things like my
headset or kneeboard on the dash at the beginning and end of the flight. Or
at least I do in rental planes. Have you had any troubles like this?
Greg
