Over the last 2 years I have been testing colors other that white that are suitable for the limitations of these aircraft. I found a Satin Nickel that I absolutely love. It's a warm silver that does NOT overheat the surfaces, and after 2 years of testing showed great results. I decided to go ahead and shoot white primer over the entire canard in order to prep her for a real paint job coming soon. She's smooth and fast the way it should be :)
