Hello All,
need some advises on fabric repairs on the elevator of a 1997 built MXT-7.
Most of the problems are peeled of tapes edges and some of them seems to have been unsuccessfully repaired with instant glue in the past.
Is instant glue a right treatment for this kind of repairs? If not what should be used?
Can I clean the old glue and try repair it form the beginning?
The paint has also pealed of for small area, about 4 sq inches. How can I treat it?
I have low experience on fabric covered aircraft, since I have only use plastic coats on model so any advice will be welcome and highly appreciated
Thanks, Philippos
