Your right Tremclad is the Canadian name for Rust-Oleum.

Looks good Sam, your arm must have been sore after that workout.

Thanks guys, i do my best to show each n every step on the way....

Yes Paul, not just arm but both shoulders and upper body as we just came out of Ramadhan, so not enough nutrition in me as yet but my passion took over it....lol

Nonite i will fill all the pinholes and imperfections with auto glazing putty, will try to do another coat of primer but if not then first coat of
White will be sprayed on it tomorrow during the day at some point. All 3 fins will be white also, then i will spray green on both outer fins. I will also make fuselage cheat lines around the same time.

Connie got Glazing chicken pox.....lol

Outer Nacelle's compartments have been filled in as i see more risk in placing batteries in them due to vertical shock upon landings!
Not to say that all landings are text book perfect but why take risk that could break the wing due to so much weight on outboard nacelles.

The outer nacelles are still close enough to the main gear that the weight load of the batteries shouldn't be that much of a structural issue. You really want to keep the wire between the ESC and the battery as short as possible to limit loss and reduce ripple which can damage the capacitors in the esc.

Started water sanding with 400 wet/dry paper, went through whole aircraft first and then second round of applying more putty started.
This filling and sanding process will continue till whole surface becomes smooth as baby's skin for painting...

Sam also using two different colors for priming helps as well, in addition to the putty. Doing this in addition to the glazing will keep you from going through the epoxy and hitting the glass, and allow you to see the areas that need more filling. for me one of the most frustrating things when finishing is getting the resin on the glass so thin the fabric starts to show on the surface.

Paul, what other colored primers do you suggest apart from Gray....I can get white, red and yellow here easily but not sure which will work best under White colored top fuselage.....

All you need is something that will contrast with each other so you can see any rough spots. With a white top coat go with the white primer as you last color...

The white paint I bought is dual type of system, it's primer and paint together!, so i'm considering to do masking and then spray white tomorrow morning...

After 2nd round of wet sanding, model was washed with fresh water and left tilted on left side in the sun to dry!....

Finally, white is all done on the fuselage, sprayed dark green on inner sides of both outer fins. PIA's 60's logo is being developed to be made as template to be used for painting logos on both outer fins....

Finally after spending 2hrs figuring out how to do cheat lines on both side of the fuselage, they were masked and then were painted with dark green color. Left outer lower fin was also painted green plus centre fin from both side was painted white.

Primed and partially painted the inner wing today, i was in bit of rush to get this a part done, so didn't bothered to fully sand the surface on this wing section but for this purpose i'm sure it will do the job.
