I don’t like that color

I have had enough sanding for a while and figure it’s time to throw some primer on top and see what the results are on the control surface tips.  I was pleasantly surprised how good they turned out.  The sanding really paid off and with the few pinhole exceptions, the transitions between the fiber and the aluminum are very smooth.  The primer is an ugly color, but at least it highlights where you still need work.

I was especially excited about the top of the rudder where I had to add a lot of fill to make it nice and smooth.  The micro added to the West Epoxy is solid as a rock when cured but still sanded pretty easy.  Really easy to work with.

So the elevators are complete now and went back up on the wall.  I have just the bottom rudder fairing joint to smooth out and then I’ll start on the rudder trim.
