Last coat of white on fuselage and stripe

Covering

This weekend was SLIGHTLY cooler. Was able to apply the second coat of Ultra White on Saturday morning on the sides of the fuselage and the bottom later that afternoon. I marked and applied the painters tape for the stripe Saturday night. 

Sunday morning, I applied the first coat of green for the stripe against the slipstream. Sunday afternoon, I applied the second coat and them some touchups on the green to hide any white showing through. Sunday evening, I removed the tape.

Still has some cleanup to do. Some brush strokes went outside the tape and some paint went under the paint. The curve was hard and more paint slipped under the paint. I'll look at doing that next weekend.
