Brief Description: Painted interior
|
|
Masked of and painted the interior. After consulting the tech counselor and ohter local builders, and the various fora, I decided to go the simple route, using rattle can Rustoleum Smoke Grey gloss enamel.
Mosit of the interior will be coverd by the full upholstery kit, so not everything needs painting. I have not yet riveted the turteldeck skins on, so I still have the tailcone clecoed to the rear baggage bulkhead, and the side skins cleckoed to the longerons. The longerons need to be painted, along with the rear bulkhead, so I ended up doing a good job of painting the cloceos.
I got carried away on the rear baggage area, painting portions that will be covered with upholstery, In the forward fuselage area, the only areas pointed were the canopy deck and roll bar braces, the wing pin latches, the seatbacks, and the seatback hinge area on the floor. I also painted the bottom side of the instrument panel bay and the inside of the fresh air vents.
I haven't yet prepped the seatbacks, so I'll have to pain them later.
