Primer day!

Started tonight with final deburring of the skin holes.

And the skin edges.

And countersunk the AEX trailing edge.

Then my daughter and I scrubbed all the parts with BonAmi and maroon scotchbrite.  Rinsed well with water.

Parts are then layed out to dry.

To speed the process of drying I use compressed air to blow off the water.

Skin one...

Skin two...

Mixed up a batch of AKZO and ran a bit short.  Loving the PPS system!  Ended up mixing a bit more while the parts were drying on one side.  Ended up with a little extra left over.  I hate wasting this high dollar stuff.  Hopefully I will zone in on the amounts to mix soon.

Skins all primed.

Parts all primed.  Assembly starts tomorrow!
