Risky painting in the hangar

Post by A2022 »

the risky part was fear of overspray to other hangars. the year was Winter 2015-2016. I don't think my neighbors were convinced I could keep the overspray outside, but I did. the fans were outside, and I pulled negative pressure in the booth. there is absolutely no overspray in the hangar and no other planes were damaged, but it was risky and a lot of work. was it fun and has the paint been good for the past 8 years?.... yep, but I was worn out. it took me a year to go back and finish the tail. good memories!
