meddesign Posted April 30, 2011 Report Posted April 30, 2011 Here is how I keep my bird outside with associated bird protection. It works well, and saves $5000 a year toward gas and a new paint job down the road. Covers By Plane Cover and PropPastie along with surveyors tape and homemade foam inserts at the flaps. One uses the canopy cover and pitot tube cover year around, the plugs and tail bib from the first warm day in spring until July 4 where I live, it is different in different local. I have just completed my 3rd annual with it stored outside, and there is no water damage at all, I use the thick LPS 3 on the steel inside. Quote
HopePilot Posted April 30, 2011 Report Posted April 30, 2011 Where exactly do you use Corrosion X inside? Always looking for tips as there doesn't seem to be a lot of knowledge out there that gets shared. Quote
flight2000 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Has Plane Cover started shipping the tailcone covers again? I tried to order one last spring with the canopy cover and they weren't making them because they had lost the only seamstress that did those?? Not an effective way to cover your business by banking on one person for a product. Just sayin... Quote

HopePilot Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 Do you spray Corrosion X onto the cage itself or just against the interior panels? FYI: I'm not saying general information isn't shared, I mean specifically about Corrosion X. Quote

HopePilot Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 I just wasn't sure if the Corrosion X would lift off the anti-corrosion paint (i.e. zinc green chromate) if I applied it directly to the roll cage. Quote
meddesign Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Posted May 1, 2011 I just went downstairs, and checked and I Used the LPS 3 its like honey, on my steel. Also I am not sure exactly what the old man used on my plane, sorry for the confusion. The LPS 3 does not lift the green paint on my 70E. Corrosion X claims it will not harm anything. Quote
