Used a fractional amount, airbrushed a fairing. Color match amazingly same as 40 year old Aerothane.

Poly-Fiber Enamel 191 Pontiac Red Quart
Quality single-stage enamel that was a perfect color match for the PolyTone paint on the fabric!
Dont waste your money on this cheap enamel. Bite the bullet and buy the more expensive Mark II or Aerothane. Shoots nice and has good gloss, but it does not harden well even with the hardener additive. It has been drying for over 2 weeks and it is still soft and masking tape leaves an imprint. A lot of expense on useless material and work for nothing. Very disappointed in this Polyfiber product.
What the manufacturer doesnt tell us is this stuff is water based, and thats why it has fire resistance. But what it also means is youll be wiping mildew off it every so often for the life of your plane. It mildews like crazy. Id much rather just use conventional dope. When Stits first developed it he created this advertising scheme based on its fire resistance. But the previous materials used didnt catch fire often, practically never. Usually when someone dropped a lit cigarette. Solution, dont smoke in fabric planes. So this fear based advertising was used to sell this mildew producing paint.

No, not in the Poly-Fiber enamel. PTI has Insignia White enamel. Poly-Fiber offers it in the Mark II.
It can be thinned with Poly Fiber enamel reducer if needed.
No, as the dope shrinks over time the enamel would not. It would fail pretty quickly.
We have added 222M Rancho Silver to the available list. It is only available in quart size at this time.
