Thanks for all of the feedback on the differant sealers. It seems that an
epoxy is the best method, and the polybrush would seal eveything. With
this info I think I will finish all of my structual building with my West
Epoxy, then brush a thin coat as far as the remainder will go on the wood.
Follow this with a good spray coat of polybrush and I'm In them.
Unfortunately in my preparation for covering I have found more damage done
by the former non-builder. My trailing edges ar now removed and I must
replace all of the aluminum backers for the flaperon attachment points,
epoxy the old rivet holes, and drill the new ones in a sraight line. Hope
to be covering in a week or two now.

Ron, Your trailing edge aluminum must have been
installed by the same guy that did mine! I had to do
the exact same thing, I also added the 3/8 alum.
tubing to beef them up. Good luck, Don
