Just figured I’d provide some updated pics of the painting process, seeing it’s been 6 months..
The bodywork takes up the majority of the time to make perfect. I’m sure it depends on how good the fiberglass is when bringing it in. I did my best, but there were certainly several areas that needed work. At some point it’s a trade off of just wanting to get the plane flying. I’d say my work was probably average.
The following pics are from various stages of the bodywork process.







Now onto the paint booth part.. This process moves along a bit quicker and is more predictable.







And now for the most recent pic of the plane with a shiny clear coat applied. It looks stunning.

It shouldn’t be long now before the plane is done and ready for pickup and the full reveal can be done. Looking forward to getting back in the air.
