Estes Nike Apache Build Part 9, Painting the Apache





The fin can of the upper section Apache is painted red.
The mask line was right above the leading edge of the fins.







After the mask was sprayed and the tape removed, I had a little light red over spray. You can see it below the mask.

TIP: Instead of scraping or sanding off the red. I used a Mr. Clean magic eraser. The inset picture shows the red paint removed.
Just go light with the dampened eraser so you won't remove the white paint, just the over spray.



I didn't want to mask for the black areas between the red fins.
The next post will show an easy way out.
