Dr. Zooch Vanguard Eagle Build Part 36 SRB Nose Paint


The SRB half nose cones were taped down to a scrap piece of cardboard for painting.

These will be painted with gray primer. Gray is the finished color.




I sanded a little off the shoulder that will be covered by the end of the SRB tube.

This made it easier to slide the nose cone halves into place.





Once I was sure all the half cones were recessed to the same depth, a little thin CYA was applied to the sides with the tip of a toothpick.

White glue fillets followed. White glue dries clear and flat.

After all construction is finished, a flat clear spray will be applied.
All the white glue fillets will disappear.
