SOMEONE I KNOW HAS A COWLING MANUFACTURED FROM 0.032" AL THAT IS HELD TOGETHER WITH 1/8" SPOT WELDS. THEY WANT TO DRILL OUT THE WELDS AND REPLACE THEM WITH RIVETS. ANYONE HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR SUGGESTIONS?
there is a product called ceram-kote that has been used on the leading edges of blades in some military applications. i've used it on some internal applications and it seems to work pretty well.
