Lowejackson Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Just watched a show called Ultimate Airport Dubai (Season 2, ep 10) where they show a A380 taken out of service for 5 days at a cost of around $8M in lost revenue in order to repaint the panels around the business class seats. It seems they use 5 layers of paint on the panel and these cannot be 'touched up' and so need to be sanded and repainted in situ. Curiously the final polish is with a bit of 3M polish and a rag! I really could not help but think this must be a good opportunity for the OPT PPF products although I have no meaningful knowledge of PPF and my experience of airlines is from many many years ago it would seem there could be an opportunity to improve things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I haven't heard of anyone putting film on aircraft but it certainly makes sense. The issue is getting OEM approval. Several years ago I tried to get Boeing to approve Optimum products (Wax, ONR, Seal) on their planes and couldn't fight my way through the bureaucratic gatekeepers .
