(4) Several types of original protective treatment are used on magnesium alloy parts. With paint removed,
treatment process should be identifiable from coating appearance as outlined in following table. Parts
should not be reprocessed either completely or partially without first contacting MDHI Customer Service
Department. However, regardless of original process used, chromic acid brush−on treatment (Dow #19, or
equivalent) is acceptable for touchup of coatings removed by abrasion, scratches or rework.
(5) When ordering paint from Advance Coating and Chemicals, specify each paint by type (i.e., acrylic, epoxy,
polyurethane), by color, and by AC part number. Also include compatible HS or Fed. Std. No. to ensure that
correct type and color paint is provided. The color code numbers for finish paints used on new Model 369
helicopters are now being entered in helicopter log books prior to delivery of aircraft. Owners/operators of
earlier models should check sales order for paint numbers listed and enter them in some log books, or
sales orders. If so, ensure when ordering Advance Coating paints that AC No. and SA No. are compatible.
