Hello-

What is everyone using as chafe tape on the leading edge of the flap and in between intersection fairings? And good (clear) options out there?

Thanks,
JN
 
Thanks, Tom. Appreciate it. How about the clear plastic/rubber tape that would go in that spot and in between painted parts to keep them from rubbing on each other? What's that called?

Thanks!

Teflon Paint

I used Teflon infused epoxy paint for all these areas on my -4. Its what is used on the Boeing and Airbus products. Comes in white and grey but can be tinted. Never any peeling or yellowed tape, and can be applied with smooth foam roller. If it needs touched up, I just scotchbrite and roll another coat.
