Finished canopy fairing
26 May 2017 6 hours

After sanding, filling, priming, sanding, filling, priming, sanding, filling, priming, etc… I think the canopy fairing is good enough. If I vinyl wrap the plane, the vinyl should come out looking good. I might wetsand the surface a little bit to make the matte areas shine a little, which will help with vinyl adhesion. If I end up painting, a coat of filler primer prior to painting should be all that’s needed. Right now there is a coat of epoxy primer on it to seal everything up and leave it in a good spot.

This is after a ton of filling, sanding and priming. I finally switched over to using Evercoat Rage Ultra. Stuff works great!

The surface is smooth to the touch. The surface blemishes should come out with a filler primer if need be. If I vinyl wrap, which I probably will, the vinyl will cover the sanding blemishes

A small fraction of the sanding dust!
