    Name the safety and health

    precautions to be observed in
    operating a dope room,
    including storage of material.
    1a
    It should be well lighted and ventilated
    using spark proof motors, lights, and
    switches. All flammable material should be
    store in fireproof containers in protected
    areas. Dope and paint rooms that are not
    located in a separate building should be
    isolated from the rest of the building by
    metal partitions and fireproof doors.
    1b
    What primer is used when
    maximum protection of the
    metal is desired?

    2a
    Epoxy

    2b
    What type of test can be
    performed to identify existing
    paint finishes?

    3a
    Apply a coat of engine oil to a small
    area. Nitrocellulose will soften in a few
    minutes, but acrylic and epoxy will show
    no effects. If not identified, wipe down a
    small area with MEK. MEK will pick up
    pigment from an acrylic finish, but will
    not affect an epoxy coating.
    3b
    What causes blushing when
    applying dope or lacquer, and
    how can it be prevented?

    4a
    Under humid conditions. Rapid evaporation of
    thinners and solvents lower the temperature of the
    surface of the wet dope causing condensation of
    moisture from the air. The moisture causes a milky
    white or cloud appearance known as blush. The
    condition may be eliminated by heating the room to
    decrease humidity, or by using a blush-retarding
    thinner to increasing the drying time. Blushing is also
    caused by moisture in the air supply, drafts, or
    change in temperature.
    4b
    What is the purpose of using
    fungicidal dope when finishing
    aircraft fabric?

    5a
    To prevent micro-biological
    deterioration (rotting) of the
    fabric.

    5b
    What are the identification
    marking requirements for
    United States registered
    aircraft?
    6a
    Letter "N" followed by the registration number must be
    displayed on both sides of the fuselage, or on both sides
    of the vertical tail surfaces. The height of the characters
    must be equal in size and be at least 12 inches, and the
    characters must be 2/3 as wide as they are high. The
    exceptions to the width rule are the number "1", which
    must be 1/6 as wide as it is high, and the letters "M" and
    "W", which may be as wide as they are high. Characters
    must be formed by solid lines 1/6 as thick as they are high,
    and spacing between each character may not be less than
    1/4 of the character width.
    6b
    What should the color of
    registration markings be?

    7a
    Should be contrast to their
    background

    7b
    What are two types of dope
    used for aircraft finishes?

    8a
    Nitrate and Butyrate

    8b
    What is the advantage of
    butyrate over nitrate?

    9a
    Less flammable

    9b
    What would happen if dope
    was ever used over paint or
    enamel?

    10a
    It would have the tendency to
    lift and remove such materials.

    10b
    What is applied to metallic
    surfaces as a common resistant
    covering before the application
    of enamel or lacquer?
    11a
    Zinc chromate primer

    11b
    What can be done to the
    surface of components to
    prevent filiform corrosion?

    12a
    Ensure primer is completely
    cured.

    12b
    What are the most common
    methods of applying aircraft
    finishes?

    13a
    Dipping
    Brushing
    Spraying

    13b
    What type of paint may be used
    over any paint system that is in
    good condition?

    14a
    Epoxy topcoats will adhere to
    all paint systems that are in
    good conditions and may be
    used as a general touchup,
    including touchup of defects in
    baked enamel coatings.
    14b
    What is normally the cause of
    runs and sags in a spray
    application of a paint finish?

    15a
    Holding the gun too long in
    one place or holding the gun
    too close can cause too much
    paint to be applied in one area.
    15b
    What causes an "orange peel"
    or "pebble" finish?

    16a
    Incorrect spray gun setting
    Incorrect air pressure
    Incorrect paint viscosity
    Holding gun too far from work
    16b
    What causes fisheyes in paint?

    17a
    Surface contamination

    17b
    What is used to thin chromate
    primer?

    18a
    Toluene

    18b
    Which federal regulation
    prescribes the size and location
    requirements for aircraft
    identification number?
    19a
    FAR Part 45

    19b
    What type of materials should
    be thoroughly protected when
    using paint remover?

    20a
    Synthetic rubber surfaces
    Aircraft tires
    Fabric
    Acrylics
    20b
    What instructions should be
    followed when covering an
    aircraft with materials specified
    in an STC?
    21a
    Instruction included in the STC
