Description

Formerly Elixair part numbers 306-1, 306-5, 307-1 & 307-5.
SkyRestore is an innovative solution for the quick removal of fully cured sealants and some adhesives. Available in liquid and gel formats for different applications, SkyRestore can be applied to quickly soften sealant from most parts of the aircraft including aircraft structures, fuel systems, nacelles, landing gear and joints for easy removal. The integrated sealant removal system provides speedy results when compared with alternative, traditional cured-sealant removal methods. It is effective on Polysulfide, Polythioether, Silicones and RTV sealants and can be used on most metallic surfaces commonly found in the aerospace manufacturing and maintenance sectors.
