Tip: Painting Prep Part II

Still putting together the tools/shop requirements to paint my RV7A. I am going to use the Stewart System paint..... http://www.stewartsystems.aero/

All of the custom FG parts have been fabricated. These parts are in the process of pin hole filling.....:eek:....

Got the new Campbell Hausfeld 80 gal compressor installed....but...the pressure switch is not working so a new one is on it's way.

Lowes Aero was used again this AM to purchase extra lights for the painting project. I mounted them on 4X4 doug fir which will make them portable. Also bought some mixing containers for the paint.



So far between the new compressor/compressor install/lights/paint stuff I am into the paint $$$$$$$$$$$$ about $1200. Will see if given the Time/Effort/$$$$ spent/results, if the diy paint job is going to be as good or better as compared to the PROS.:confused:

Frank @ 1L8 ....RV7A.... Painting about to begin!!!!!!
