RE: Corsair F4U-1A Top Flite Giant ARF Modifications
Photos 1 and 2 show how I’m starting to remove all of the MonoKote. It is pretty tricky to get all out. Especially in-between the ailerons and laps.
Photo 3 shows how prepping with tape and wood dowels to plugs the holes. Getting ready to lay out the fiberglass.
Photos 4 through 9 show the process of laying out the fiberglass and using the West system. I use the West system 105 epoxy resin and the 205 hardner.
Photos 10 through 12 show the first coat of spraying a sand-able primer. It’s an automotive sand-able primer that fills in deep scratches and sands easily.
