Colour paint test + painting to help fairing


209-at last able to check new air pressure equipment, and make a sample piece for the supplier.
210- a float is also partly painted with air spray gun, needs some more work.The paint seems ok.
212-experimental primer, made from white topcoat and burnt orange paint. Good result, its very strong.
213- yesterday, the 1st of September was a flag day in Estonia. It was a sunny day, first job was to put up the national flag.
214- main hull painted with topcoat, needs more putty, but at this stage it will be mostly included, not ground away. This helps to be able to see whats going on, then to add more putty carefully to get a good surface. Topcoat will protect the glassfibre laminate, of course.
Bought couple of divintcell lists to finish the cabin and cockpit plus more resin. Need to buy more carbon to finish the daggerboard and rudder, and plexiglass for the windows.
