TJay added a post in a topic SQUASHPLATE ON WARP DRIVE PROP?
When I bought a warp for my challenger Daryl said to take the 3/16 aluminum plate right from the front of the wood Tennessee and use it the same way on the warp, But I didn't buy the expensive HPL hub Maybe that's why,

Really I wouldn't worry about it till your compression gets below 100 psi 2 strokes can run a long long time with a few scratches in them cylinders, letting it cool down on final doesn't hurt them as bad as everyone says, Its when people who dont know how to run a 2 stroke get on final and sit at 4000 rpm spiking your egts to 13 to 1400 degrees then punch it for a touch and go pouring the ice cold fuel in them cylinders and watch your egts drop to 700 degrees thats what kills them, If your on final and you pull power back to 3000 to 3200 rpm you will have an engine that lasts many years.

Ok you guys convinced me to go the cheaper wrought I just ordered a couple gallons of Poly-Tone, If it spray's as easy as the poly-spray there will be nothing to it. Hopefully by next weekend my pictures will look different again, Are you guys spraying 2 cross coats or doing what the book says and going the full 3 cross coats? Or just spraying till it looks good and even

Ok got the third coat of poly-spray on today and for those of you that said to wet sand, I thought you were nuts wet sanding a piece of fabric but I must say wow the smooth finish that I got is incredible, that works great, and for those of you that are wondering it took exactly 1.5 gallons of poly-spray to do 3 thick cross coats on the wings,

I have never heard of ring worm? does that apply with accent colors like the leading edge. say you have 3 cross coats or color on the wings, which is really 6 coats now three cross coats on the leading edge that's a total of 12 coats of paint, has anybody else seen or dealt with this.

I have heard that Poly-Tone doesn't take gas spills well, Is that true? I am not against Poly-tone by any means and the price is very appealing compared to aerothane, For those of you that have used Poly-tone, are you happy with how it all turned out and would you do it again,

Buying AerothaneMight order some Aerothane for my wings, It says it automatically adds catalyses that I need, So how bout Reducer do I have to buy that separate or is that also added. Also what does Aerothane use for reducer, Just the R65-75 same as all the other poly products?
