Ryan Hothersall Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Gloss clear coat applied. However, I will be struggling to finish this one for the deadline. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan Hothersall Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Decals done. The Begemot decals went on without any issues. Matt clear coat sprayed. Then I had an Oh #^#% moment when peeling the masking tape off the canopy, which remained stuck to the tape and came off. Managed to re attach with PVA glue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan Hothersall Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Another little Oh %&^$ moment when attaching pitot tubes etc, the superglue ran down the side of the radome. Once it had dried, rubbed it off touched up the paint. Had to mask up canopy again to respray the clear coat over the forward fuselage. Now finished. Photos in flight line thread.
