| What is a Compression-Bonded Fiberglass Airframe? |
-A phenolic core is laminated with 10 oz fiberglass cloth, saturated with Aeropoxy resin.
-AEROPOXY resin, we promise. Used by Burt Rutan. We don't use polyster resin which is cheap, inferior, smelly, and carcenogenic. Always ask for "epoxy" resin. Never accept polyster products. |
| -The laminate is then compression-bonded under enormously high pressure.
- - - better than vacuum or tape-wrap - - - |
| -For additional strength, the AEROPOXY is then heat-cured. |
The perfect airframe?
| Ready to Finish! |
-Glossy and smooth.
-So shiny, in fact, you can see your reflection. So we suggest a light scuffing before painting. |
-No grooves to fill!.
-Did we mention that its really smooth and shiny? |
