• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Currently getting ready to paint my 4 Skybolt ailerons and wondering how any of the members have done this. Theyre recovered and done through the third cross coat of poly spray and ready for the Ranthane. Planning to paint in an outside screened in booth. I am referring to the warning in the Stits Polyfiber manual on how the Ranthane fumes are harmful and emit cyanide. Would this be a problem with a 3M 7502 paint respirator (goggles etc.) with some breeze behind you through all the coats? The fresh air respirators are very pricey and again, I only have 4 ailerons to paint. Open to thoughts and or recommendations....

Thanks,

Stu.
