Pat,
Thanks for the quick response and I'll check with my LHS to purchase or order some Ultracoat Safety Orange. For my painted finishes I usually mix K&B Superpoxy Red and Orange, 50-50, to get the best discernible color against most sky conditions. On built up sailplane wings the Transparent Orange seems to work well especially for the tip panels and tail feathers. I also place a chrome trim stripe on the leading edge of the wing to catch the sun glint during turns, as in thermaling. Many thanks again.
