Brief Description: F706/F708 Bulkheads; Wash and Prime
Did I mention my most least liked task? It's deburring and polishing edges. I'm still not sure how much of this is really necessary. I think I would save a ton of time building if I didn't try to always get the edges perfectly smooth and if I didn't prime anything. Oh well, Van's says to do it to avoid cracks and corrosion so onward... I deburred and polished the edges of the F708 bulkhead and then it was on to the priming. I washed and primed the F706 and F708 bulkheads using the SW 988 self etching primer again. These aft bulkheads have little chance of being scratched or even touched once the aft fuselage is built so I elected to use the easier and more convenient rattle cans rather than the AFS primer.
