I'm only about 60 hours into this thing and I know I'm getting a little ahead of myself as I'm just working on the empennage but have the 8A quickbuild wings and fuselage in the basement. I've been reading ahead so I can get the big picture of what happens and when. I'm good until I get to the fuselage. I can't seem to figure where to pick things up from in the builders manual to continue on the fuselage. Any guidence here is appreciated.
And, I can't seem to figure when the interior surfaces get primer or paint. Are the quickbuild aluminum surfaces preped for primer or is there some sort of clear primer applied? It looks like as construction progresses things will eventually get tight in the fuselage making it all the more difficult to access with a paint gun. I've got an auto body friend with a booth that can do the work, (I also may need advice on interior paint choices later) I just can't figure when the appropriate time to paint is?
Any thoughts?
