      The pilot side wing walk texture is chipping off. What is the best way to remove the painted on texture and prepare it to receive the new wing walk texture?

      Brett,

      There are two ways to repair. One is to completely remove the old wing walk and contact Ken at AirModsNW to have him sell you a new side to be glued down.IMG_20160807_122540586_HDR

      The other options is to paint the wing walk with this product to repair missing pieces. Choose your weapon wisely.IMG_20160807_122550187_HDR

      Cheers

      Hi Roscoe,

      Do you have any advice on the best process and the chemicals/tools needed to remove the old painted on Wing Walk?

      I could paint the peeled patches but it is dried out and lifting off in random patches and stuck like the proverbial to a blanket in other places.

      Thanks
      Simon

      Simon,

      You can use a heat gun to remove the old material (drill out the rivets if used) down to the fiberglass wing root. Then apply the new material.

      Cheers
