Good reply.
I appreciate OEM requirements, but as you know blades lose leading edge paint in days not weeks or months and if you are a Robo pilot keeping the joint painted is a real neat idea! not that I fly one, the 500 blades are much more forgiving, but as speed = faster erosion a touch up stops paint & alloy erosion.
I was just thinking aloud as to how others keep blades in good condition, but I have seen blades that personally I would not fly.
