I finally got some time to get this job done. Admittedly I was not looking forward to this since paint, messes and I have a long term relationship. But the truth was that it wasn't so bad. I did scour the Kitfox forum on how others had done this and used many of their lessons learned which I am certain contributed to my success in completing this without my normal big mess. I also had the wife helping which was a huge help in getting the paint where it was supposed to go/ when it was supposed to go there. One thing we came up with was using the smaller cups that we normally use to mix Hysol and put them over the ends of the spars after removing the tennis balls and draining the major amount of remaining paint (read the drip phase after draining). Really contained the mess.
I also did the cut out on rib #1 for the fuel tank feed. You can see in the background the cut out from the factory and then they instruct you to do the same with the inside of that rib stack. I changed the shape a bit so as to not have that sharp lip on the rib nearest the fuel tank. Besides it looks better IMHO.
