Feb 10, 2024     Windshield fairing -- pulled tape - (1.2 hours)       Category: Windshield
1. Sanded yesterday's minor filler, then shot primer on it.
2. Pulled off the electrical tape from the perimeter of the windshield. Noted several areas where the bottom layer of tape ended up slightly under the edge of the adjoining fiberglass layer. I managed to get it all out, but the slightly ragged edge it left in spots reinforced my plan to re-tape the edge about 1/8" up from the existing edge, then feather the fiberglaass right onto the windshield.

Overall, I'm quite pleased with the fairing, and I think it will look nice after paint.
