: Did some searching on airplanes painting last night and found a lot
: of interesting info on the ultralight crowd using latex house
: paint on their planes with good results and much less expensive
: than 'certified' air plane coatings. Of course they don't
: address durabilty and abrasion issues like we deal with but
: sounds very interesting.

It works on aircraft Dacron, that's a very fine weave material though so is relatively easy to fill. At one time, way back in time like 25 years ago I built ultralights and started and ran AOL's ultralight forum.
