Repainting of the butterscotch parts is complete and went well. This yellow plays tricks on you so you have to just trust.
I mixed the crap out of this batch. I mixed up 4oz of each for a total of 12oz and used only half of that.
With the new settings on the gun I am putting less paint on the parts. I can do 4 nice and light coats building it up to a nice even wet coat. I only did one wet coat being it already has paint on it.

As first it looked just the same but as the sun hit it the yellow really popped so I think I am ok, we will see when it dries. If this doesn't work then this will be the color and so be it.


On the bench for today will be panel lines on the wing. There are only a few so should go quickly.
