Serious question, does anyone else torque stripe with a paint pen from the craft store?
A gallon of the aviation-grade torque seal costs $85 at my supplier in Wichita, but the $3 paint pen from the craft aisle has held up fine on 40+ inspections over the past 6 months, so I want to know if I'm the only one who made this switch.
Ha, you're not alone! I've been using the cheap craft pen for about a year now and it's still going strong, no smearing or flaking through any of my checks.
