Hi All,
I've just finished sikaflex 295UV bonding my slider canopy and windscreen, so I'm now in the process of finalizing the planning for my fairings. I'm planning on making a one piece composite skirt around the slider, however I was wondering how people are addressing the center tube that runs from the front bow to the rear bow? Looking at the specifications for the Sikaflex 209D/N primer, it says that it should be covered with something for UV protection (odd, that for a window application they can't make a primer UV proof), so I am wondering how others are tackling this. I am leaning toward painting a stripe of West G-Flex Epoxy down it, priming with a high build two pack primer, then just top coating with my polyurethane top coat. Let me know if you think I am off base with this one.
Cheers,
Tom.
