Brown aircraft has been manufacturing gap seals and baffling for 50 + years. Josh is also one of the nicest guys to work with. ________________________________ >My EAA tech counselor used Red High Temp RTV impregnated onto layers of >fiberglass to make the seals for the air dam in his engine cowling. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I used 2 inch fiberglass tape and hi-temp RTV to make my baffle seals and they have performed flawless lee for 400+ hours now. I was able to build them for 1/4 the cost of purchasing them. Four layers of the tape, each impregnated with RTV using a squeegee, is the right thickness. I think I used 24 feet of the material for the 0-200. I made them in 4 foot sections. Lay the first tape on a stick free surface, squeegee in the RTV, add a second layer of tape and repeat. When the last layer is applied, turn the entire piece over and do the bottom side. Don't worry about pretty edges. You will cut them straight after the RTV is curred. I clipped one end to a high shelf and let them hang vertically to cure. I learned the technique at one of the early Gatherings. Make sure you attend this fall to pick up a lot of tips and shortcuts.
