Heh - It looks like I may be out of luck?
What does everybody use to prime aluminium? Is there a more modern alternative that bonds and preserves just as well?

We buy at a plascon outlet in Nelspruit, but it is readily available at most automotive paintshops. I have bought from BASF and chemspec before.

MS primer sit nie aan aluminium vas nie, en dit is baie swaar. ChemSpec maak so n groen-geel 2 pac etch primer wat klou soos meidestront aan n poeliesjas. DIS die verf wat jy moet he. Verkrygbaar by alle auto paint suppliers wat hulle sout werd is. Net bietjie duur.

Thanks guys.
Located some Strontium Chromate. The minimum size is quite a bit more than I wanted. Seems one pack (10l) is enough to paint about 2 planes!
Anyway, i will get some, and give it a bash.
Does it need any plasticisers, or anything for aircraft use? I know aluminium does not move as much as fabric, but there is some surface rippling.
Thanks,
Justin

Don't have the price yet. (Too scared to ask.)
Plascon factory says I can order it (AW255+PL2) at any Plascon outlet.
