Scrapers

Glow in the Dark (GID) Scrapers

Glow-in-the-dark (GID) PPG SEMCO® Sealant Tools are manufactured from a proprietary polymer that glows in the dark after being charged by a light source.PPG Semco GID tools are designed for use in areas where limited light is available, such as aircraft fuel tanks (center & wing) or vertical & horizontal stabilizers.
PPG Semco packaging has formulated these tools (Nozzles, Scrapers, Spatulas and Sealant Pick) from a proprietary resin that enables operators to see the tool in dark areas or to quickly find ones that have been left behind, reducing the likelihood of the item ending up as Foreign Object Debris or FOD. Some of these tools are also available in a red version which makes it easier under ambient light to see as it does not blend with common aircraft primers.
