Evaluation of Military Specification Aircraft Coatings (AVSCOM Number 77-18).
Abstract
This report covers a comparison study on the properties of military specification aircraft finishes. Coatings representing olive drab and white gloss and camouflage (lusterless) specification polyurethane, acrylic, and nitrocellulose-acrylic finishes were investigated. Also included were a one-package, moisture-cure urethane and an experimental urethane-acrylic coating. Based on this study, Specification MIL-C-83286 (USAF) 'Coating Urethane, Aliphatic Isocyanate, for Aerospace Application' should be used for Army Aircraft where a gloss finish is required and specification MIL-L-81352 (AS) 'Lacquer Acrylic (for Naval Weapons Systems),' where a lusterless finish is required.
