PAINTING A CANOPY
I'm building my first scale plane and I don't want to use a pilot and I want to paint the inside of my canopy black and was wondering what to use?

RE: PAINTING A CANOPY
Be sure to completely (and tightly) mask the outside of the canopy. Any drop of overspray will look very bad on the finished job. Also, when viewing the painting job in progress, keep in mind that it will seem much lighter when the outside masking tape is removed and light strikes the surface.
