In section 11 (page 11-6, step 1), Van's says:
"Apply a thin coating of Anti-Seize paste to the contact area of the Vertical Stabilizer Front Spar and VS-1016 Vertical Stabilizer Front Spar Attach Bracket"
Any recommendations on the specific product that should be used here? I looked up anti-seize paste and saw that graphite-based ones are bad for aluminum, so I'm assuming it's something else. I'm also assuming that "anti-seize paste" means something more specialized than "grease".
Also, I'm wondering why this specific contact is different from the many other parts that are bolted together - does the high loading on a single bolt mean it slightly moves?
Thanks
