Being that the lacquer thinner is used on the color top coats and not
on the base coats, it is unlikely to cause problems... However,
following the Ceconite instructions is best, as you intend to do...
Members of our local EAA chapter recovered the Wittman's O&O Special
after the crash... The ceconite was glued down and finished with
traditional dope (for cotton) and our analysis is that the dacron
fabric pulled up through the dope and the elevator fluttered... Yes,
the hinge to elevator spar bolts were not AN hardware but would have
not failed under normal flight loads...
