I had an interesting discussion with Vern and Mark Mahnke at Lancair
regarding the silver epoxy for static wicks.

Mark said the adhesion of silver epoxy is poor.  He experimented with
chopped up carbon fibers in epoxy and found it to be a suitable alternative
to silver epoxy.

Any builders have trouble with silver epoxy or try carbon fibers/epoxy with
success?
