I have questions for anyone who has used the CARF paint. I have it and so I will use it. I will be putting the rabbit ears and dummy flap actuator covers on and painting them and the fences this week. Does anyone know how long I should let this dry before applying the Tailormade decals and waxing it? I think I read it is very slow drying but can't remember. What type of wax are people using? I read here somewhere to use black shoe polish to darken the white stuff in the panel lines. Is this a good idea? Wouldn't the wax then rub it out? Will it get on my hands every time I handle the plane? Lotta questions right? Thanks.
