that is a lot of load on those wingtips at highway speed........

it has less tendency to loosen off in the cold air. and shunk up much tighter. and has survived longer than the thinner type. the mylar may not last as long as the tedlar but it easily available with no questions asked. plus i just love the absolute clarity of it. I'll accept the shorter life and extra cost and time to recover when that comes.

It does not harm the foam ribs.

here's a photo of a must have sundial for every hanger. saw this in Italy at
www.euroflyulm.com. factory/airstrip they have a very a fine range of aircraft i really like their 'flash comfort' for when i retire... i scored a two week work trip
one of the workers with the company there is right into flying and paragliding, the alps start about 5k away. weekend was pretty involved. but rather chilly . having my feet still on the ground at 6,000ft is a bit of a novelty for me. 100yd dash is a bit of a killer tho. perfect Lazair country open fields thermals and ridge lift. eyes open.. i counted no less than 55 para gliders in the air at anyone time plus two silent self launch gliders and some ultralights. to easy to have fun, the whole area around Semonzo is known as simply Airpark.
looking forward to this summers flying and next years trip.

If only I had known about this before I rebuilt my wings.....
How does it affect the foam on the ribs?

Hey, I forgot about that stuff. I gotta get some of it and try it! Of course you're right, Ozzie and I have done mostly old Mylar jobs that used rubber based adhesives. I couldn't find the old messages about it using the search engine on this site, so I used Google. They list lots of sources for a 3M Citrus based adhesive remover. Is this the correct stuff? Cost around $15-20 per nice sized spray can. They also list a 3M citrus cleaner, that's about the same price. It would seem that the adhesive remover would be the product to use, but you're advising using the cleaner? Do you have the actual 3M product part number so we can order the correct stuff the first time?
