Overlapping skins AV-30

[Montreal]

Has anyone used Ardrox AV-30 for waterproofing overlapping skin. First time I’ve heard of this product and it seems like corrosion X but in the Intro KAI it looks like it can be brushed onto skin joint prior to riveting in place. Not required but suggested by Sling.https://www.sealaeroparts.com/products/ ... 0002188100

No, but I've tried using Duralac for this purpose on the tail, I think it's a similar product. I've also been dipping rivets in it. Unlike corrosion X, which is an oil-like substance, it cures to a slightly flexible layer, so you have to apply it and then promptly assemble. It gets pretty messy, especially with the rivets because if you apply even a tiny bit too much it gets on the nozzle of the gun and you have to scrub all the rivet heads with acetone to get it off after it's cured. I haven't decided whether I think it's worth the hassle yet.
