Hi everybody,
Well, apparently A. and B. got fed up with numerous individual requests for approval of one chemical or the other.
Both issued documents as guidelines (no approvals!) what is to be tested. For AI, youīll find a SIL that refers to an AIMS document. For Boeing, itīs one of their D6-docs.
Both papers refer to paint softening tests, kinds of aluminium hardness tests etc. I have more details at work, if needed.
A good product should be tested against all of those, I suppose.
And then, itīs up to decide to the operator (and MRO) whether to apply the stuff. As an MRO, I would always get the written consent of the operator before the application...
Cheers, J.V.
