A number of owners in the UK use a waterless wash (e.g. Williams available from Amazon) to clean the prop and wing surfaces on their aircraft after a flight. It was developed for racing cars but is in widespread use on any car and is used with microfibre cloths to remove dirt and leave a polish as a short term alternative to water and shampoo. Is this likely to be safe to use on Jabirus?
If it is safe for the acrylic windows and doesn't have silicone in it, I don't think there would be a problem.
Will check re acrylic windows, but is there a general issue with silicone on the other surfaces....I think a lot of automotive polishes have this in??
@jrooviator Yes the issue with silicone in polishes etc. is that it penetrates through the paint and ruins the bonding if a fibreglass repair was ever attempted. I think it also makes trouble when repainting. In the case of a car you can go back to bare metal but on a Jabiru you can't, the silicone will go all the way in.
