Re: Tech Lab
Then Tech waved her over to the back of the room. there were Cabinets and cartons, he opened a crate that looks as if it had been open before.
This was designed in Spain, During the Russo-Angel wars. It was made for Tanks, but..well.. it didn't hold up well. We found it works god with most Boarding armor, thought it does make light boarding Armor a bit Unbalanced.. Better to toss the light armor and get new...
Anyway, we tested in on Heavy and Medium armor when some crewman had to replace plates that were blown off the Hermes. It worked well in The Black.... Its ..well? almost like Chalking.. you snap the top, squeeze the trigger at the bottom of the Can, and the stuff comes out like toothpaste. On the Lid is a 'spreader'. You pull that off and get the 'paste' in there and spread it around the outside to it seals when you are done,The Seal will be in effect , almost immediately. But it hardens to its Metal state in abut 5 minutes... The Can's no good after, so? what's left inside will be solid in a bot long of a time span, since its canned? say..maybe..10 minutes. Haven't used them much.. Its some kind of Mixure of Mercury and lead with the compound hardening once its out of the can...
we have alot of it? no one seems eager to use it, Outside a a couple pilots who use it to seal a hole in the cockpit.. I don't even thing they all carry it?
