Jun 21, 2011 Thread starter #443 B-17engineer Colonel 14,949 65 Dec 9, 2007 Revis Island. Alright so I was not happy at all with the paint job on one wing... So what I did was I sanded it...masked all the areas I didnt want paint off.. Then I retried. That didn't work either so it got sanded again Last picture shows the area as it stands now and I'm pleased with it. Landing gear, canopy, prop, next.
