Looking Great Randy!

Can I pick it up Saturday? Looks like Wind, Cold, and Rain all weekend.

Randy, is that KlassKote blue? If so, could you tell me which one? I want to buy some for the fuse to match.

KlassKote 310 deep blue and 204 deep red. Sorry but I had no black paint for the 4 stripes, made them blue, looks nice.

Blue is perfect. Thanks, I'll get that ordered. I'm going to paint the tips blue to match also.

So, you're going to finish the leading edge separately, then? Looks like the paint ends about 3/4" short.

Very nice, though!

The Mylar comforms to the whole wing except about 1/4" of the leading edge, each side. You have to lightly sand prime and paint. For the wing tips I dremel a 1/4" in the end of wing for fiberglass wing tips.
