| Brief Description: |
More wing polishing |
|
|
Ran out of F9 polish, but I got the right wing far enough along so I can work on painting the 'victory stripes'. Masked off the area and began to prepare the surface. Received the landing light lens for the one I broke last week. Broke this one too, but fortunately the break happened about where I needed to cut it off later, so all is well...or at least all that is not well is hidden. Tried my 'self-etching' primer on a scrap piece...not so good, I could scrape the paint off with my thumb nail, so I'll need a better etchant. I have some old 'Metal Ready' etchant when I re-did my '36 Chevy a few years ago. It was used with POR15 rust proofer I used on the frame (good stuff). I'll have to give that a try. |
