Nov 01, 2020     Second coat port wing & stabilator - (2 hours)       Category: Ext. Finish
Clean and prepared the underside of the port stabilator. Mixed 12 oz of Eastwood epoxy primer and rolled the top side of the port wing. Second use of pan liner, third use of mixing cup. New foam rollers. Rolled primer on the underside of the port stabilator and the top of the port ruddervator. Used a small foam roller to prim the inside of the ruddervator and the inside of the starboard aileron.
Easy cleanup, discarded the pan liner and mixing cup. Foam rollers after they set up.
Fairly pleased with the ease of application and clean up compared with possible spray application. The objective is to establish a reliable primer surface for future color application and to combat the observed corrosion. Corrosion of the 6061 T6 seems accelerated in places that were used in early polishing trials and edges that were exposed to atmospheric moister condensation, and places touched or pushed with hands.
Color coat will probably be white, with color application using vinyl.
