January 1, 2009 - Paint Cowl |
||||||
Bruce and I headed over to the paintbooth with the minivan loaded up with RV-7 parts. We prepped and primed the Cub cowl and fairings. I had previously primed the RV-7 cowl, spinner, rudder and wing inspection parts -- they were ready for the color coat. |
||||||
I wiped the parts down with a tack
cloth -- they are ready for
painting.
|
||||||
Bruce sprayed the Dakota Black color coat. | ||||||
Looking good! The paint filled
the few imperfections that remained on the cowl after the 30+ hours of
prep I had spent on
it.

We went to lunch, then Bruce sprayed on the clear coat. | ||||||
The spinner is absolutely
perfect.
