Mar 18, 2024 1.7 Masking & painting prep Category: Paint / Decals
Made another trip to the paint booth to get some miscellaneous tasks done.

1. Checked out the cowl progress. The upper cowl is 98% done, with just a couple areas of "weave pinholes" still remaining.
2, The lower cowl has had one coat of primer filler applied, but it still has a way to go. Lots of pinholes.
3. On the advice of my painter, I drilled a 5/32" hole in the bottom aft part of the rudder bottom cap as a water drain.
4. Spent some time re-profiling some small areas on the windshield fairing. More tomorrow.
5. Added a smoothed layer of silicone caulk to the tip rib of the VS, over the screen I installed yesterday.
6. Improved the taping and masking on the canopy, which is essentially ready for primer and basecoat.
