Brief Description:  Front lower cowling sanding and epoxy

PIN hole Hell! The emp fairing required much sanding again and then more filler after a round of epoxy being brushed on. I also applied another round of epoxy and axcetone mix before the other layer cured. Will need to sand out the runs and scuff for some primer to see how the work turned out

The lower cowl was previously sanded but the outer surface still needed quite a bit of sanding.
Applied to coats of epoxy and acetone mix to the inside. After this cured some I decided that I might just scuff sand later and spray on some heat resistant white primer. The goal is to make the surface slick enough to wipe off grease and oil etc.

The outer surface was then covered in 2 coats of epoxy and acetone mix about 5 hours apart from each other so that sanding was not necessary.

I can still se some areas that will require some filling but hopefully the pin holes are mostly filled. I will primer lightly to see next time
