Hey guys,

So I have been running my engine on the ground.
I was noting a lot of bugs etc... Stuck on the leading edge and the back side.

What is a good wax/coating/cleaner to clean and protect my prop?

Thoughts???

SNAPVENT® - MODEL CC3251 At aircraft spruce

It posted on here by Craig pain in 2009

It is used in a plane that is AMD built I am flying in now

No complaints here!

I use "Wash Wax All" and one of those no-scratch scrubbers to clean the prop, followed by any good carnuba wax.

You need to get it up high enough where there are no bugs.
lol!

I really hope to do that soon!

I'm actually thinking I anout every thing that was a concern.

I have about 5 little things to take care of and I may call for my inspection

Yep! Nervous!

Lemmon Pledge  works great for  cleaning the bugs off the  windshield, cropsters  buy in the case @ Walmart.

So every time they fuel and load up on water , the can of pledge comes out, for the bugs on the  prop,visor.& wings.

     

  Also heard a mail  hauler say,    they  also used Lemon Pledge on the leading edge to help prevent icing.              

 So take your pick, winter or summer..........must profess, that I have never tried pledge for icing ,and never will!
