DO NOT USE SIMPLE GREEN ON AIRPLANES!!!! That stuff etches aluminum. Nonsense. Diluted to proper levels it is harmless. On fabric or paint it has no effect. Used properly it is fine for aircraft use. The problem is it (and just about any other liquid) will leech into the joints between panels and there it sits and does its chemical thing. Sure, it's fine on the surface of the aluminum, but that's not where the damage occurs. Go ahead and use it properly, but you've been warned... No Spam If you let it leech into the joints of bare aluminum you are not using it properly. On a properly painted surface there should be no chance of it leeching into bare aluminum. It's not a matter of letting it - it will do it. Inspection panels may be properly painted, but it will get between the surfaces. Like I said, you've been warned. No Spam |
