Steven:
I guess you are going to use High Temperature RTV for the sealant?
My first concern will be to lessen the chance of corrosion. To do that the
metal should be cleaned, then painted, and then sealed with the RTV. RTV does
stick very well to paint so that will also keep out the moisture.

| Subject: | Firewall Sealant |
--> TeamGrumman-List message posted by: <315@cox.net>
Team,
You might want to look into a sealant now sold in a caulk tube at Home Depot
in their paint supply area. It is for sealing fireplace chimneys, etc. It
is a high temperature (fire proof) intumescent caulk. Intumescent meaning
it expands. When subjected to high heat it swells to fill any voids and
provide additional sealing. In our experimental Pulsar builders group we
have a Boeing Rocket Engineer that was familiar with the product and
recommended it. At that time it was only available in large quantitiies but
recently I found it at Home Depot. If you are interested I will look at the
tube next time I'm at the hanger and get the maker from the label.

a simple fix is always the best. I'm glad it worked out OK. Sometimes
I'll put safety wire around it to make sure it doesn't slip.

True. I'll add checking that bit to my pre-flight.

--> TeamGrumman-List message posted by: "Davidson, Michael" <mwd@bek.com>
My partner and I hope to be joining the ranks of Grumman owners within the
next couple of weeks.
If anyone could supply a check list for a Tiger pre-purchase inspection, or
a list that is typically used during the annual, it would be most
appreciated.
Also, we need a recommendation for an experienced Grumman A&P in the
Orlando, FL or Jacksonville, FL areas.
Thanks,
Mike Davidson

Well, I went ahead today with the sealant. Our plan is to mask the sealant
with grease for the paint job, then take the grease off. We used PRC, which
my A&P had on hand. He used to use it on the airliners down at Palm Springs
for windows, fuel tanks, etc. He said its oil proof, fuel proof, and once
cured, has really good longevity. I taped off around the brackets and then
pulled the tape after applying the stuff. Looks pretty sharp.
