REFLECTOR: Leading edge protectors

[Scott Derrick]

I have rare damage that is mostly limited to paint nicks.  I did scrub a 
bit of paint off flying through rain for a couple hours last fall. It 
didn't go down as far as the primer though.

The big damage has been on the back side of the prop, where a leading edge 
wouldn't have helped at all.  A couple cowl screws and a 1/2" alternator 
bolt/washers/nut all wacked the back side real good.  I fixed some with 
flox/micro and some with JB Weld
