Ashantee | Tuesday, February 10, 2015 Next on the task list was the cabin overhead, which was an original gelcoated molding that was showing signs of age: discolored, darkened, and drab. Fresh paint would make an enormous difference to the cabin. Throughout the day, I sanded it thoroughly with 80-120 grits on a finishing sander and by hand as needed to remove the gloss and otherwise prepare the overhead for primer and paint. There were several areas requiring repairs, most notably a large instrument hole in the aft bulkhead and numerous fastener holes, and I'd deal with these next. Afterwards, I cleaned out the old sealant from the inside perimeters of all the port openings. |
