Nice airplane Gray Beard!  Good job.

Don't be so fast in critically analyzing non-glassing and subsequent displeasure of not having a perfect mirror finish, because you may be on to something! 

Aerodynamic properties of laminar vs turbulant flow indicate less drag when a thin layer of air flows and clings to a surface with slight indentations, thereby reducing drag due to decreasing the wake of the airflow.

In other words, I made some of that up, but it will probably fly better than the same plane with a perfect finish!
