We sanded/polished a small section of the wingtip to fix a blemish in the orange. We then removed the masking that was over the white section, and noticed one area where some orange had snuck around the masking and made a small splotch on the white portion of the wing. There had to have been either a small tear in the masking plastic, or perhaps a small area where the masking tape peeled up. That was annoying, but not a big deal to fix. I sanded the splotches with 1000 grit until the orange was gone, then moved up to 2000 and 3000 grit... and then buffed with polishing compound to get back the shine. We also had a small paint issue around the fuel filler cap where the white paint peeled up a bit with the masking tape. We fixed this with a little bit of touch-up paint. Hours: 4
