OK there are 2 of each sheet. These are the 5 that are shown but there are 10 in total.

 

[Wurger]

OK. All is fine. Don't worry.

I think yuo have to sand much these leading edges of wings. I have noticed some Superglue at a few areas on them. These have to be sanded down Harry.

 

[B-17engineer]

Sure which sheet of the sandpaper

Pink being the finest.

Orange being the more coarse one.

 

[Wurger]

Our posts criss-crossed. For the sandpaper pic try to use the way I showed you tonight.Are there any numbers of grade on the back sides?

 

[B-17engineer]

I'll look the grades are 100-600. I couldn't find 1200.

 

[Wurger]

So try to take close up pics of each sheet.

 

[B-17engineer]

 

[Wurger]

Which one is of 600?

 

[B-17engineer]

Depends I don't know my Grits. If the finer the sandpaper the higher the pink is 600. If the coarser the sandpaper is the higher than the Orange one would be 600.

 

[Wurger]

Usually the thinner grain is the higher number is.

 

[B-17engineer]

So pink is 600

 

[Wurger]

What about the red and white?

 

[B-17engineer]

Red and White are the finest of the 5. I think 600 is the red or pink. and 450 for white.

 

[B-17engineer]

Must go now mate!

Sorry! Talk to you tomorrow! Have a great night!

Tomorrow is my last day of school. 4 day weekend and then the next Tuesday off!! wahoooooo! Can painting be started this weekend possibly?

 

[Wurger]

OK. Of course it can. Tomorrow you will sand all these seams with the 450 sandpaper and then with the 600 grade one.Then we will try to polish these seams.

Sleep well.

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks! I'll do that. 4 day weekend. After today!

 

[Wurger]

OK. Do you have a piece of felt ( tomentum) ?

 

[B-17engineer]

I'm sure I do somewhere. Will have to ask my mom on my way out for school.

 

[Wurger]

OK.
