    Default dressing a neuform propellor?

    My neuform prop has 360 hours on it now, and it is developing small scratches and nicks on the trailing edges. Funny, the leading edges have stayed clean. I was wondering if there is a good way -- or if it is even advisable -- to dress these nicks in some way. A previous mechanic thought they could be filled with superglue, but I never tried it. - WF

    Flight design USA has some epoxy which is used for nicks in the prop. They have both White and Red for which ever prop you own.

    Hi there WF, Neuform have a special resin available for knicks. (http://www.neuform-propellers.com/do...llermanual.pdf go to damage page 13. ) for reference. Personally I would also talk to them about the " trailing edges" I have a 1.85meter vp on my sw (160hrs) and really look after it regarding knicks etc. as our strips in SA are not like you guys have in the USA.
