    My First Airplane.

    I have a buddy that was headed to an airshow. He asked me if there was anything I could do to remove the bugs and also maybe shine it up a bit.

    I washed the wings in a CG Bug/Tar remover in a made up bottle I had. Once I had all the bugs off I tested under the belly with a specific AIO I use for one step quicker jobs. To my amazement the paint came out awesome and left a layer of protection for him on his next flight to the airshow.

    This was a blast to do, as it was pretty darn easy to work on and also see results. This was a single stage paint job and I got it to shine with minimal paint transfer to my pads.







    I had to get a shot of my car in front of the plane..

    And a clean, smooth aircraft will go faster and farther than a dirty buggy plane.
