Title: Yak-11 Post by: Massimo Tessitori on September 23, 2013, 07:57:36 AM Hi,
I'm reading the pago on Yak-11 written by an old friend ;) on http://www.redbanner.co.uk/History/Yak11/Yak11_paint.html (http://www.redbanner.co.uk/History/Yak11/Yak11_paint.html) Although the page is nice, there are some things that don't convince me. For example: Quote For the purposes of 'UV protection', the MAP also specified that lacquer AII Aluminium should be used as an external primer over all surfaces, supplanting the more usual ALG-1 primer..... I suppose that AII aluminium was suitable for fabric and wood surfaces only, while ALG-1 was suitable for metal surfaces only. ...While AII Aluminium was no doubt effective against UV rays, it was certainly inferior to the usual primer, ALG-1, as regards protection against moisture. Therefore, with the MAP in a state over the costs of fighting moisture deterioration in the VVS, the use of proper ALG-1 priming was immediately reinstated. Any ideas? Regards Massimo |
