RE: SR Eindecker
I've always used super coverite and prefer it to other material. As for the paint bleeding under the tape I use trim tape and spray a light coat of clear along the edges of the tape to prevent bleeding before I apply my color. I generally brush on several coats of nitrate and then butyrate after covering but on a telemaster I built and covered with coverite I used polycrylic/polyurethane and for some reason the fabric felt gummy after flying? I was using 15% fuel and it shouldn't have affected it.
I had a call from Sal today at SR. I had ordered some items for my eindecker and something didn't look right to him on one item so he called to verify if what I ordered was correct. Turned out I was wrong and it was a small item that he could have looked past and shipped anyway but I'm glad he called. That's what I call good customer relations! Thanks Sal.
