Re: Stus-List Reinstalling plexi windows...again.

I used dark tint on my windows - can't see in for the most part. 
  But, when the sun was on the right angle I could easily see
  through the plexi and see where I was not very accurate with
  spraying the backs of the windows.

In my case the fiberglass repair is a blue 2 part epoxy repair
  that I didn't bother to paint over so it's more visible.
Don't think it's worth trying to tape off the inside and spray
  into the edges I missed - but a little more care on the cut out
  would have been prudent.
If you want to test it spray some plexi then VHB tape  2 pieces
  together -- when you pull them apart you could gauge if there is
  any reduction in adhesion with your paint choice vs no tape.

Re: Stus-List Reinstalling plexi windows...again.

2018-03-14 Thread Derek McLeod via CnC-List
When I replaced my portlights on my 29-2, I became quite paranoid about the 
spray paint attacking the plexiglass and undermining its longevity. I tried 
looking at the technical data sheets for various paints like Krylon and found 
they contained chemicals that would theoretically harm the plexi. 

My approach instead was to use just Dow 795 for the entire job. The slightly 
tricky part was making 3/16”x3/16”x3/4” spacers with cured 795 to allow enough 
silicone between the fibreglass and plexi. The rate of expansion between the 
dissimilar materials being the concern, and having enough silicone thickness to 
accommodate that movement. I made up an mdf board shaped slightly smaller than 
the portlights to hold it in place while the 795 cured for 10 days or whatever 
it was. The mdf was wedged against the portlights against the lifelines. 

The 795 just appears black at the overlap and the portlights have held up for 2 
years of big temperature swings in Toronto, Canada.

Ditto.  The Kylon Fusion flat black worked well for me.

Stus-List Reinstalling plexi windows...again.

2018-03-13 Thread Jeremy Ralph via CnC-List
My plan is to paint the acrylic underside with VHT Silicone header spray
paint.  Saw this recommended on a forum somewhere .  Anyone try this?  Good
or bad idea?

Stus-List Reinstalling plexi windows...again.

2018-03-13 Thread Chuck Saur via CnC-List
Happy spring??  I recall someone commented on priming and/or painting the
smoke-tint plexiglass edge areas,  prior to installing, to hide the the VHB
and Dow 795, so all does not show through the smoke plexi against the white
cabin side along those edge areas.

I have the window dug out, whew, and cleaned up with Mechanica silicone
remover and mineral spirits.  I actually lost only three patches of knuckle
skin. I have also sanded the receiving perimeter of the plexi where it will
make contact with the tape and/or paint.

I could not find the mention of the painting step in the archive.  Has
anyone painted this and have advice?  I purchased a can of Krylon High-bond
plastic paint in flat black. It's waiting in the barn...  Thoughts?
