QB Wings / shipper info

Received my QB wings and finish kit yesterday. We used Stewart Transport to ship. They did an outstanding job! They took care handling the parts and were very helpful and patient unloading. It was obvious they've done this before! I'm in Tennesse so it was a long ride.

Question, does anyone know what type of primer (see pics) that is on the wings? It's a very bright gold color. It's not a typical alodine appearance, it's more of an anodized look. Very bright smooth consistent finish.

Thanks!
Mike

I'm actually trying to get this info from Vans as well (since I have QB wings and Fuse on order).

At Sun N' Fun one of their reps mentioned that both QB facilities use locally sourced primers. The one in Philippines uses some sort of wash primer, and the one in Brazil uses some sort of epoxy primer, but that's all I could get thus far.

Did your wings come from Philippines or Brazil?

I was told they came from Brazil but cannot verify that info. Wherever they came from the primer is very nice looking! I was planning on using alodine in the for the tail, and probably still will, but I'd like to know what primer this is. I'd like it to match...Just a bit of OCD I guess. My fuse is due mid May, hope it's the same.
