August 28, 2008 - Canopy Fairing

 I got up early this morning and did some sanding and filling. 
 
I marked spots needing attention with blue tape. 
 
 I've beenusing the Norton 3X High Performance Sandpaper Lynnette picked up at Home Depot for me.  I find the 120 works the best for sanding the canopy fairing.  The instructions call for 60 but that's too rough.  I use a little hardwood rectangular block for my sanding block.  I tried using a 1 1/2" diameter PVC pipe but I didn't like it.
 
Apply more micro. 
 
 I finally got around to dimpling the wing access plates. 
 
 I riveted the camloc recepticles to the top cowl. 
 
 And installed the male ends on the oil filler door.  The door is pretty much done except for riveting.
