How about another "Picked up from the paint shop" thread?
I drove down over the weekend to re-assemble the plane, and then since Wednesday was VFR, we flew down in a friend's -6A to finish reassembly, W&B, and flying it home. Really turned out well. Another beautiful job done by T&P Aero Refinishers in Salinas, CA. Having primed all interior parts and rattle-can painted the interior, I knew my painting skills were just not up to task to do the exterior. Juan and staff at T&P turned my chicken-scratch sketch of a design into a real work of art. Really happy with it.
Process: The aircraft had some fiberglass fixing and filling/sanding done, cleaned, alodined, primed and then painted. Sherman Williams Acry Glo and then a clear coat layer.
