Default RE: Top Coat for Latex

bps,
The Cabot your talking about . Does it come from
Newburyport Ma. ? If it does then it's the same stuff
I use. I've been using Cabot for about five or six years
and it seems to work well. The only reason I never
mentioned anything about on RCU is because I thought it
was available only here in the New England area.

One thing I will mention. It will tend to yellow and show it's
age after about 3 or 4 years depending on how well you
clean your plane after use.

My test plane for latex paint and cabot was a 4*120 that I
must have run 20 gallons of fuel through. It was cleaned so
many times that the clear coat ,(Cabot was gone) and the
paint was almost completely removed. One other thing I
have noticed , the pink die in the fuel will show up on a
white base color. I haven't figured out how to stop that
yet.

Regards,
Roby
