The Dan Diehl KR-2 wing skin kit uses vinyl ester resin construction. I have installed the Diehl skin kit on my KR-2 using vinyl ester resin. As detailed in the Diehl instructions, I installed fuel tanks in the outer wing panels also using vinyl ester resin. Vinyl ester is superior to epoxy for fuel tank construction. Vinyl ester resin, when promoted with Cobol Napthanate by vendors, has a short shelf life. Order only the quantity you will need for a particular task and use it right away. The vinyl ester resin emits styrene fumes during the curing process. Your shop needs to have fresh air ventilation when using the vinyl ester resin. You need to have a charcoal filter on your respirator rated for organic fumes, or use a fresh air respirator system. Keep spectators and pets out of the area when using vinyl ester resin. After the vinyl ester is fully cured, you can work without the respirator. Brian Kraut has purchased the rights to the Diehl skin kits and is working to produce skin kits for the KR-2S. Contact Brian directly br...@engalt.com to verify details on skin kits before making any production commitments for your KR.
