Bluey Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Does anyone know the paint colour Airborne use on their microlights? All I know is that it is not white. It looks like an off white or light grey to me. If anyone knows the name of the actual colour so I could just go out and but it, that would be great. I am looking to paint over a few small spots of rust that appear under the painted metal parts. Spraying the affected areas with an appropriate lubricant doesn't seem to do much.

Guest Crezzi Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 The formulations of all the colours are in a document on the Airborne www - http://www.airborne.com.au/images/04221%20_2_.pdf Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluey Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 The grey looking paint on the tubing is a powederkote colour made by DULUX. It is a standard colour known as APO GREY. I just painted small patches of my 912 to cover up small areas of developing rust. For some reason, the painted areas seem to rust even though I can't see any breaks in the paint.

crusty Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I have a 912 outback and have the same problem, rust spots with no paint degredation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
