I need to paint over some fabric repairs on a European manufactured SLSA. The SLSA Maintenance Manual states:

"The exterior painting of the aircraft consists of 3-components acrylic lacquer system from DuPont. Paint code: be dependent on Colour scale RAL."

I've spoken to my nearest authorized DuPont Aviation Paint Distributor who says they no longer offer a acrylic lacquer for fabric in the U.S. So... I'm looking for some help/guidance finding a compatible alternative paint. I have a call in to Randolph but haven't got a call back. Anyone?

Thanks
