 |
|
I have had questions on this prop before, but here is another. The leading
edge protective tape on the three blades has almost come completely off due
to the centrifugal force of the rotating prop. There is a sticky adhesive
residue left on the leading edge where the tape was located. I plan to
replace he protective tape, but in the meantime can I simply remove the
remaining tape, and remove the adhesive with some "Goof Off" remover? This
will keep the leading edge contour smooth.

Hi Hugh,
Yes that product will work fine. If you run into a problem you could even use a little lacquer thinner, but very lightly and then use a little soap and water to wash any residue off. If you plan on leaving the tape off very long or after you put new tape back on you should balance your prop again. It will be off balance and especially if you have had the prop on for quite some time.
