<p>Although they dont encourage non-RV members, though dont kick them out.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I just dont mention that i dont have an RV (or a Zenith) when i post a question and its never been a problem.</p>

<p>Thanks very much for the detailed reply. I did a search on the Vans Airforce website but did not find this info. I will try again. I am building an RV-12iS and I plan to polish the aluminum and add some decals. Thanks again.</p>

<p>Certain types of vinyl are now available that have air passages built into them. Sone exampkes are 3m 1080 and Vivid.</p>
<p></p>
<p>This issue has been discussed in great detail on the Vans RV forum which i frequent. The consensus there is that this is not an issue if your decals are made from these new types of vinyls.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I recently did a partial vinyl wrap on my plane. I have no concerns about corrosion after my research.</p>
