    • 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.
    • 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.

I am at an airport with a lot of fabric experts.....

They all say that Polytone is much lighter than any urethane, all else held equal. And more durable. One guy paints the wings and upper fuselage on his citabria with Ranthane, and the bottom half with Polytone, for that reason.

I have searched but can find no prior post on that.

Thoughts?
