CA on Covering
Well here is a newbish thing to do even after flying for over a year....
I got a little overzealous with some CA and it ran onto the covering. Any good way to get it off? Will debonder take it off without harming the covering? Or should I just let it sit and flake off eventually?

I'll second the acetone. I always keep a bottle handy. Just watch out on the older ARF's with the sticky vinyl covering. Sometimes the color scheme will run off. I've had no problem on Monokote or Ultracote.

I used debonder on blue monokote with no problem. I would try to find a small spot behind the cowel or somewhere inconspicuous & test it to make sure it doesn't cause any problems.

Hey, tuwood, you ought to look for acetone the next time you're in a home improvement or hardware store. It's very much cheaper than debonder. I think a quart is just a couple of bucks. And it's got other uses. For example, it thins epoxy WAY BETTER than drug store alcohol does.

I have a bottle of debonder I bought a while back & have got quite a bit of mileage out of it. When it runs out I'll try some acetone.
