In my NOVICE opinion, my prop is in really good shape and I'm not ready to make an investment in having it worked (yet). It's a tempest+. But it isn't in perfect shape. The edge is abrasive and I have a small "shard" hanging off of a blade. I'm looking for tips to maintain this blade for the time being and get adequate performance also. I searched the forum as well as the Internet (to the best of my ability) and I don't see any detailed info; one site said just use a file... I don't want to "go backwards" in my process but leaving it as is for the first run doesn't seem like the best idea either.
so I was thinking that I could block sand or file the edge to smooth (to the touch- not speaking of a profile) it out and then polish with a dermal...
Is this approach Sacrilege? Because I don't see anything posted about maintaining your prop for small imperfections- I could have missed it?
thanks in advance for any advice- and I'd be happy to post pics of my personal imperfections if someone is interested in the degree of repair I'm looking at..
