Subject: | Turtle deck painting color |
--> RV9-List message posted by: "Carlos Trigo" <trigo@mail.telepac.pt>
I'm making final decisions in the painting scheme of my -9A and I'm
strugling with a particular decision: the color to apply on the fwd upper
deck, just forward of the (slider canopy) fixed windshield.
On one hand, I think it should be white, in order to reflect the sun and
avoid creating heat down, where the vast majority of avionics and electric
instruments are installed.
OTOH, it should be black, in order to avoid geting sun reflection to the
pilots eyes.
What everybody thinks about this dilemma?
Carlos

Carlos:
Its very important to think about sun reflexions in the pilots eyes. In my -9A
Ive
covered the upper panel with a light brown color fabric (corine) and the results
are very
bad. The sun reflexions in my eyes oblied me to cover it with a black towel.
Some of brasilians -9A use a dark plastic film glued at inside part of canopy.
It reduces
the heat and brightnness inside the canopy.

Someone recommended flat black spackle spray (forget the company that makes
it) that is used on the inside of auto trunks. It looks good and is REALLY
flat non-reflective black with little flecks of grey. While I haven't
flown yet, everything is painted and I have "tested it outside and I think
it will work as well as a black cloth.

Hi JC
Good to hear from you. Now in portuguese language.
Obrigado pela resposta
Eu estou-me referindo parte exterior frente do vidro do canopy, e no
parte interior. Na parte interior eu j comprei (na Cleaveland Tools) um
tecido preto prprio para forrar, juntamente com uma borracha preta para o
topo da chapa sobre o painel de instrumentos.
A minha dvida na parte exterior frente do vidro, entre o pra-brisas e
a carenagem do motor.
Carlos

Mine is a slider as well. I painted the dash flat black and the
forward skin and cowl is white. I have had no problems with glare and
I think the white surface keeps the heat in check.

Since it is a 'Turtle deck', might I suggest you paint the logo of the University
of Maryland?
Fear the turtle, baby!!!

If there is any topic that doesn't need someone selling you information it
is the paint topic. There is so much information available on the network
and from the manufacturers that buying it seems a bit odd.
I'll sell you a peek at my new website. The money goes to a good cause,
beer.
