I used Nitrate dope thinned 50/50 and applied 3 coats. One coat of automotive primer surfacer was applied and lightly sanded. The color coat was applied, followed by the clear coat. The entire plane was sanded (wet) with 1500 wet or dry, followed by a wet sanding with 2000 grit. Then The plane was compounded and waxed.
