----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- Here's the materials list I have from Aircraft Spruce...where has my A&P gone wrong?: 3 gal. Poly Brush @ 50.50 151.50 4 gal. Poly Spray @ 49.70 198.80 1 qt. Poly Tak 15.50 2 gal. R65-76 Reducer @ 28.35 56.70 1, 2" Tape 20.25 1, 4" Tape 19.05 1, 1/2" Reinforement Tape 27.45 4 gal. Poly Tone Silver @41.10 164.40 1, 4" Bias 32.80 1 qt. Red Poly Tone 32.65 Envelopes 104.95
Total $824.05 The Poly Tone is for painting the entire plane, Nevada Silver and Red. Materials are for recovering wings and painting the plane. Also, in my experience, with the correct size bit the rivet heads will pop off automatically about 90% of the time if you hit them dead-center. Some times using a chisel or bit to pry off you risk the problem of elongating the hole. Takes a lot of care and patience.
