Hi!
It's easy!
Just lay out the fiber weave (25g) over one part of the wing (1/4 of the entire wing) and pour or brush out th e24 hour epoxy evenly over the wing. When finnished ...roll a kitchen table papper towel over the wing to soak up as much epoxy you can.
That's it!

The epoxy you should use is not the hobby type you find in hobby shops instead it should be the professional type 24-30 hour epoxy.

Paint I use i 2-part automotive acrylic filler and paint , both these has to be sprayed on.


And you use Brown microballons and epoxy for making wing fillets, filling imperfektions and dents
