- Finished sanding the slot for the canopy slide handle
- I decided to paint just the rear frame members of my canopy frame. They all sit in front of the red-painted rear bulkhead, so this will let the frame blend in with the bulkhead.
- Used newspaper and painter's tape to cover all of the frame except for the rear portion to be painted.
- Made another impromptu plastic paint booth by hanging the plastic (just 1 mil) from the rafters.
- I don't have a respirator, just a mouth/nose mask and goggles. So I go in and hold my breath, paint a bunch, step out, and repeat a few times. Low tech, but the parts I'm painting are small.
- Got 2 full coats of primer painted on.
