Hello,

I’ve received my kit and I’m reading through the instructions in preparation for the start of my build. I’ve done a lot of reading in here about Hysol and Varnish. It seems to be the consensus that Hysol doesn’t bond well to varnished pieces. I’ve ordered the quick build STi wings, I’ve come across a section in the manual about installing the Main rib, a web filler rib and a transition rib. The instructions state to “Varnish each of the #1 rib pieces separately prior to installing on the wing spars.” Therefore I would like to think that Hysol will adhere to a varnished piece of wood.

I’m happy to hear any comments from those that have completed this step.

Thanks
