Airframe, first coat of paint before wet sanding with 400 grit. Parts loosely held in place since paint is curing. Sanding removes the bumps and smooths. Two or three more coats and then wet sand with 2000 grit, followed by polish.

You going fast Jason, It will look real cool ones all done ! My repair rocket will take a few months, lots of parts to assemble and order. Tim is giving me some Blue Tube parts, will see how that works out.. Not so sure if zi want to use fiberglass on this one. But of course will glass it anyway, if blue tube is applied.

I'm going fast thanks to vacation. It will slow down to a near stop once back at work :-)

Makes sense on the repair. It took me a year to get back to the Panda. Other than rigging the electronics I still have some repair work to do to the fin can as I never completed that. I don't think it will take too long though, it survived in surprisingly great shape. I seem to remember saying, "It will buff out!"

I also want to rig the Panda for the smaller rail buttons like I originally intended, we'll see though, when it gets close to flying that is a low priority. I still see it taking me a month or two before flight.
