.....
The ultra violet radiation barrier is provided by the heavy
carbon black content of the dried primer (Dupont 70S). The primer
gives the whole surface a flat black color and the sanding should
never remove it completely, exposing the light gray feather fill
below. The primer is sprayed on, allowed to dry, and sanded lightly
to achieve a smooth surface. The first primer coat is sanded using
220-grit and the second coat very lightly wet sanded with 320-grit.
When complete, the primer is very smooth, dark, and ready for finish
paint.
STEP FIVE: FINISH PAINT
.....
Follow the manufacturer's directions for the type of finish
paint that you have chosen.
COCKPIT INTERIOR
.....
It is not necessary to fill the glass weave, although some very
light sanding may be done to smooth the surfaces. Apply one coat of
the Dupont 70S primer to the interior glass, surfaces for ultra
violet protection prior to painting the interior.
.....
A light color (light grey, green, or blue, etc.) is recommended
on the cockpit interior to avoid high heat buildup when the aircraft
is parked in the summer sun with the canopy locked. Automotive trunk
paint may also be used. Its “speckled" appearance will hide the weave
of the glass cloth.
