Fuselage Center Section #14 - etching and priming!

 Etched all the parts for the extended baggage area as well as the parts I pre-prepped for the seat rib area.

Then I primed them!


It was super high humidity tonight and I ran out of primer on my first batch and rushed to make another batch.  When I did, I put too much water in the mixing cup.  It sprayed fine but then suddenly started to make runs on some of the parts.  I learned a lesson there and found the limits of this paint system.

Luckily I got most of the parts done with the first batch and the ones that have runs did not look too bad after the primer dried.  The couple that need rework can be fixed with a little sanding.  This primer is sand-able.
