Final Primer Coat

After we completed the wet sanding of the first coat of paint we wiped down the whole fuselage with Isopropyl Alcohol to remove any oils.  A final coat of primer was sprayed and allowed to dry.

Final Coat of Primer Applied

The fuselage was wet sanded with 600grit sandpaper removing any dust nibs and "fuzzies" around pinked tapes.  Extreme care was taken in this step as you don't want to sand through this UV protective layer and expose any fabric.

We've also been finalizing our fuselage paint scheme.  In our original design, there were a few areas where implementation was going to be difficult, so we made a few minor changes that should hopefully help out.
