5. Wipe off excess mixture. When applying the mixture take care that as little as pos-
sible is deposited on exhaust pipes or collector rings to avoid a fire hazard when the
engine is started. Keep the ignition wires, tires and other rubber parts free of the
mixture.
6. Where maximum corrosion protection is desired on stationary parts, use exterior
surface corrosion preventive compound, Specification MIL-C-16173, grade I.
7. When the aircraft operates near salt water and off coral beaches, the corro-
sion can be very rapid. Except for friction and bearing surfaces, apply a
protective coating to all parts of wheels and brake assemblies.
