Now to take a deep breath and plunge into this not so easy to paint NMF process. We start with MM Steel for the panels around the exhaust section of the nose. Did this on Saturday, masked it off on Sunday and then applied the overall natural metal finish. Starting with painting the bottom areas. Let it set and then flipped her over and applied the finish over the top sections. I had masked off the black anti glare section off and the windshield prior to airbrushing. After several hours I then masked off the the tail, stab and wingtips for the areas that will be red. Unmasked those sections and now let it sit and wait for decals. What decals, don't have any for this as yet. Was to just used the ones from the kit, but they disintegrated. The search continues.
