I added some tape to the second tank. It was kinda weird with Stubby tank, its made of a different material (clear). I thought I could get it back out, but it was a pain trying to get a handle on it (slippery).
The C.G. tank ended up working fine. It came out a bit nose heavy, so I needed to move everything back. Snug fit, but ok.
The whole plane is painted and cleared with KlassKote 2 part Epoxy paints. I know I've mentioned it before, but I really like this stuff. Plus they got a great shade of green. The paint is fuel proof as it is, but the clear helps smooth out the paint lines, and I could tell it needed the extra weight. If you liked the old Hobby Poxy paints, you will like the KlassKote, also their catalyst and reducer work in most cases with the Old Hobby Poxy. There are NO trim colors on the bottom, I left it solid white.

Dave,
Curious, what amount are you thinning the klasskote paint? My experience with it shows it needs significant thinning. Works really good otherwise.
