The fin tabs were masked off and the fins sprayed will filler primer.
After that dried I noticed a laminate edge was lifting.
No big deal, some glue was slid underneath on the knife blade then sanded smooth.
The primer was sanded down.
The fin on the right got some "fine tune" shaping. You can see where more of the grey primer was sanded to straighten out the raised ridge down the center.
The launch lug standoffs are two pieces glued together.
No need to sand off the burnt laser edges before gluing.
A clothespin held them together while they dried.
After the glue dried the standoff sides were sanded smooth.
Two 1/2" long pieces are cut off the 2" long supplied lug.
I'm building two kits so I cut four lugs.
These were slid over a dowel for cutting. They stayed on the same dowel for a coat of CWF filler and sanding.
