Default RE: Curare from Scratch


ORIGINAL: nxtdoor

I glassed the whole plane with .5 oz and polyester resin. Yes, nobody uses polyester resin, but I like it cause it sets in and hour and sands easy.

Used K36 Primer for the first time since K&B is no longer available and I prefer the K36. Only thing I don't like about it is it is light gray instead of white.

The white base coat is KlassKote Epoxy. First time I used it. Reminds exactly of K&B paint. Good stuff.

For colors I will be using PPG Concept catalized urethane colors from Radio South.

Maybe get some color on this weekend.

Great job! I like working with polyester best too.
