Mahalo Dave, see your from my native state.

I'm sure this has been discussed many times. I, in error, stripped the future I put on for storing. The canopies are masked(F-4 Phantom), and ready to paint. I am not sure about using a thinned Mr Surfacer 1000 to prime and then paint....or can you just proceed and paint. Also, what would work better at this stage --enamel, or acrylic? Appreciate any help, and will thank you now...Mahalo!! Ron T

Mahalo Ken... I found a set on eBay, and won the auction.....now to see how they fit. I spent so much time on my first F-4B/N Aires seamless intakes sanding, etc., tough fit. Appreciate the information. Ron

Mahalo Ken, you are right about thinking I messed up....a lot of work getting the CE to work on my F-4B/N. I'm doing a second F-4B but having hard time finding a set of Seamless Intakes. I can get a set from Relish in England for the F-4E/F/G.....but not sure I can fit those to the "B". Let me know if you have any ideas. Ron

Appreciate the information, you are right about the CE sets. I completed one and it is not a good fit, lot of work. Thanks again for the help, will give Sprue a look. Mahalo, Ron T

Any suggestions for a resource for the seamless intakes? Appreciate any help!! Mahalo, Ron

Thanks Hans, appreciate the tip. I will give it a try. Ron

Appreciate the tip, I will take your advice and use it as primer and paint over it. Thanks Ron

Aloha.... Need some tips on canopy masking. I know everyone has their own techniques, but could use some help. Someone mentioned E-Z Mark, however I can't seem to locate any U.S. that sells them. I'm new, but have found members are more than glad to help. Only problem is so many good ideas I'm now having nightmares. Appreciate any help. Mahalo, Ron
