General Aviation Modifications Inc. (GAMI), which is now selling its G100UL unleaded avgas at some airports, has posted a video to YouTube in response to comments from a California A&P who claims the new fuel damages aircraft paint.
In the video, George Braly, a company co-founder and the person in charge of engineering, says the company conducted a 10-day simulation of a slow leak of the fuel “and no paint damage resulted.”
There was some staining, but that was cleaned up “with normal shop techniques,” Braly says.
He added the company takes these concerns “very seriously” and encourages pilots and aircraft owners to report any issues with the fuel so the company can investigate.
