Hello,
A buddy had a small intake fire due to over-priming. Not much fire damage, since his trusty flight lead managed to extinguish the fire (anybody got a source/link for Halon extinguishers).
But the smoke and residue made a MESS. De-greaser doesn't allow it to be rinsed off, nor 409, nor AvGas. It will wipe off if rubbed.
My question. Is there a product for easily removing smoke residue? My understanding is that the residue is corrosive due to it's high acidity.
Thanks,
Tim
