MID Fuselage Lower Structure
Prepping the remaining parts of section 26 and priming. Can't stress this enough, when you have someone willing to do edge work and prime prep it makes all the difference in the world!! Get a Matt!
Back at home prepping parts.
This is how I prepped the bottom skin, on my bathroom floor and rinsed it in the shower. It is much harder making sure you get all the residue off the larger skins, it too many rinses and still several passes with Acetone to get it completely clean and paint ready.
The other side of the bottom skin, Im going to prime where the skins overlap.
Skin wrapped up ready to transport back to the shop, put a towel in there to make sure the edges don't dig into the metal.
Getting after it!
