Oct 16, 2021 4.8 Port wing prep, top Category: Ext. Finish
Examined urethane finish on bottom, have some orange peal areas that needed a wetter application, but overall pleased with the results. Reconnected aileron pushrod, inspection covers, pushrod fairing. With the assistance of Greg Campbell, flipped the wing to expose the top surface. Sanded epoxy primer with 320 grit and medium grit foam sanding blocks. Extended spoiler, clamping it open. Cleaned the bare metal of the spoiler pocket with Eastwood de-greaser paint prep. Used a can of 2 part spray epoxy to prime the spoiler pocket and to trailing edge that had been sanded to bare metal.
Reattached the long aileron pushrod, covered the pushrod with 3 feet of insulating pipe foam and wrapped it to the spar with film.
Compared white urethane with white epoxy primer on the empennage, color is more of a light gray than brilliant white.
