All this talk about pot life reminded me that there is a real problem
with the shelf life of the adhesive used in the static wick kit.

I purchased my static wick kit at the Lancair Labor Day fly-in in 1997.
I just opened the little sealed box with the adhesive last month.
Riight!!  The shelf life printed on the container said that it expired
12/97.

I ordered more adhesive last month.  It arrived with an expiration date
of 07/00.  Sooo,  a word to the wise, dont order your static wick kit
until you are ready to install it.  At $ 75 a pop for adhesive, you dont
want to make any mistakes.   Bill Hogarty IV-P N499R
