Last night I practiced the alumiprep 33, alodine 1201, akzo primer method on my practice airfoil kit.
Regarding the alodine step: From what I understand, the left edge (where the alodine crept under the masking tape) shows too much alodine conversion [i.e. too much time] because of the dark brown color. However, is there enough conversion on the rest of the panel section?
My thought is that if there is even the slightest tint of gold/brown, then it's okay. I mean, all I'm trying to do here is prep the aluminum so the akzo will stick even better. What do you all think?
Thanks in advance for your help.
