Our core service

Lubrication, ACF-50 anti-corrosion, and component care — the work that protects your airframe.

Performed by FAA-certificated A&P technicians, on OEM intervals, with OEM-approved products. Detailing and AOG response support the mission.

Aircraft component lubrication

Scheduled lubrication of bearings, hinges, actuators, and gear pivots — performed strictly to AMM intervals.

ACF-50 anti-corrosion

ACF-50 is our primary corrosion compound — full-airframe annual application plus targeted hot-spot fogging.

Component & bay cleaning

Detail-level cleaning of wheel wells, gear bays, avionics bays, and APU compartments.

Flight-control re-lubrication

Full re-lube cycles on ailerons, elevators, rudders, flaps, slats, spoilers, and trim tabs.

Aircraft detailing (supporting)

Exterior wash, paint correction, brightwork polishing, leather conditioning, full cabin deep clean. Acrylic-safe windows, pH-neutral composites.

24/7 AOG response (supporting)

Cargo vans pre-staged and pre-stocked for dispatch in under two hours, anywhere in the contiguous U.S.

Why lubrication & cleaning is the whole game

Most unscheduled removals start with a dry bearing or a dirty bay.

Bearings fail because grease dried out or contamination was never cleaned out. Corrosion sits under brake dust and runway grime for months. Our service model interrupts that cycle.

  • OEM-approved greases, dry films, CPCs, and solvents only.
  • A&P technicians who read the AMM before opening the grease gun.
  • Findings photographed, geo-tagged, and delivered to your DOM same-day.
  • Coordinated around your inspection schedule — zero added downtime.

Control surfaces

Aileron, elevator, rudder, flap, slat, and spoiler hinges — cleaned, inspected, re-lubed to manual.

Landing gear

Trunnions, drag braces, downlocks, retract actuators, and wheel bearings serviced per OEM interval.

Bays & cavities

Wheel wells, gear bays, avionics, APU and accessory compartments cleaned without disturbing wiring.

ACF-50 corrosion control

Annual full-airframe application plus hot-spot fogging on lap joints, fasteners, and known problem areas.
