MICRO-POXY AIRCRAFT CLEARCOAT from Aircraft Spruce
Micro-Poxy
I just used it today - The description is amazing and it seems to apply very easy - love it!
I believe that the $1 Million plane owners know what they are doing to keep their coated alu planes healthy!!!

Hello Michael,
I found it very easy to apply as well. I was not successful on obtaining an MSDS so i dont know whats in it.. Im still not sure if the words Clearcoat mean that it provides the clearcoat or it works on clearcoat. In talking with the guys at Aircraft Spruce they assure me its the perfect fit for what we are doing.. but i dont know for sure. Glad your happy with the product.. time will tell..
Cheers Vinnie

Xxponet
While researching the maker of Micro Poxy, I contacted the company and got a call back today from a Donald Fraser. He is indicating they have a new product called XXPONET. They will soon have a website Xxponet.com which is not yet active but he says will be in several weeks. He is sending me some to try. States it is good directly over the clearcoat, applies like wax. Presently I have no problems BUT I am looking to do as much preventative matainance as possible. I will update as soon as I get more info.

Hi Jim,
Good work. When i spoke to the guy representing the company he said somethink like that as well. There might be a new product that they can release to the public as this one is tied up in legal wranglings. I will stay posted for this new website.
Thanks Vinnie

O.K. So if this Micro poxy works...will it work on the bare metal just after its been polished? We were looking round to see what to wax the finished areas of the AS...don't know yet. Also about how far will one jar of that micro go you think?

I was able to wax my 30' twice on one bottle and maybe three times if I didnt go crazy with the stuff. Its very easy to apply and remove. I understand that most aircraft do not have a clearcoat on the aluminum so in theory this is the perfect application for the older airstreams.
I am waiting for the new product called X-ponent. I will try that in a small area and watch the results.
Good luck
Vinnie

Xxponet
The web site is now live. Anyone used this product yet on a late model Airstream?

"What is XXPONET?
XXPONET is in a class by itself. It is far superior to any product that is available to the public at this time.
XXPONETis not a wax, polish, or teflon based sealant. It is a micro-thin, non porous, micro clear coating that is applied to the exposed areas of your vehicle: (paint, glass and metal surfaces)."
OK...so what exactly is it?
Anyone here used it?
Bob

All,
It sounds like some good stuff; what do you use to remove those areas of corrosion? I have some around the Airstream plate (like Airslide's logo pic) and some around the belt line. Is Loc-tite alumium jelly recommended? I'm temporary living in Merritt Island, FL, and believe me, staying ahead of the salt spray issue is definitely a challenge... I'm washing this guy at least once a month and waxing him every other!

I use a set of these from PetSmart.
Tried a lot of different tools to get all the corrosion out, these have worked well for me. It's very important to get thru all the filiform to the base aluminum and then clear the area.
