I'm about to order my CS 1900 Firewall Sealant as I've reached the  

point of riveting the forward rib subassemblies to the firewall and  

the final instruction on page 27-6 is to "proseal any gaps around the  

F-1001K Recess" etc.



While I'm doing that, would it make sense to put a thin coat across  

the flush rivet lines on the engine side of the firewall?

The final texture of the CS 1900 is much different from the other

products.  



Reserve your decision until after you watch the dried product on the rib

subassemblies.  Then you should have no regrets.



Fire Annunciation, Fire Suppression, walking away for another day is

what it is all about.

John,

Could you please expand on this.  I will be starting Section 27 next week and want to make sure I understand what you are saying.

For those builders who have used PolySulfate (stinky) Thioxotrophic

(sticky shit) sealer known as "Proseal" by one brand name, and maligned

by other makers.  The product used for fuel tank sealing is entirely

different than the product to sustain higher temperatures inside an

engine cowl.



It is wise to observe the appearance of the final "High Temperature"

sealant after cure before making a commitment to use it beyond its

intended purpose.



The manufacturer (You) has lots of products to chose from.  A material,

B material and C material all have differing viscosities.  1/4 sets in

15 minutes, 1/2 sets in 30 and 2 sets in two hours.  Each product number

change also changes the properties, color, flexibility and heat

resistance.



Is that what you wanted Gary?



John

No, I am aware of the basic differences but the way I read your comment, there was something in the way the Firewall product was used or ??? that I might need to be aware of in where or how I would want to use it on the Firewall.

Sorry, it is late and today has been a hard day at work so I know I am not making sense.

I think John was referring to the firewall version having a different consistency, that perhaps doesn't flow as smooth or dry as smooth as the tank sealing version..so you may want to be more cautious where you apply it, to keep a nice looking firewall. I'm sure that if I am misinterpreting, John will speak up in the morning after work.
