Painting small parts

 We continued with some painting, finishing up with a 2nd coat of orange on the gear leg, fork, and rear cover plate.  Afterward, there were a few small blemishes that were touched up and then buffed once dry.

We sprayed a coat of gray on one side of the kick panels (which were previously primed), and sprayed a coat of vestal white on the other side.  A portion of the kick panels will also be painted orange, but we will wait until later because the cowl will need to be completed first to ensure the paint lines match up.

The baggage door was sanded and is ready for a 2nd coat (that part has no orange). Hours: 15
