A quick way to fix paint jobs that lets planes fly more often.
During operation and maintenance, erosion, lightning strikes, bird strikes, and damage from ground service equipment can all damage aircraft coatings in small spots. Most of the time, these impacts are only a few centimeters across. At first, the structure isn’t affected, but if the paint isn’t fixed, it can get worse over time (for example, because of corrosion). Local repair of a paint system is a long process that involves cleaning the surface and then putting on several layers of paint: an anticorrosion coating, a primer, and a topcoat. A process like this can take up to 10 hours, if you count the time it takes to dry. This means that airlines either don’t fix problems or only fix them temporarily. Corso Magenta’s secret technology solves this problem by making dry films from regular paints that stick together. It makes it easy to fix things quickly and cleanly. CorsoPatch Aircraft is the solution. It is a 10cm-diameter adhesive patch made of aircraft-grade paint that can be used to make permanent repairs in less than 40 minutes.
