Centuri Flying Saucer #5325, Fix and Finished!

Remember the clear coat made the motor tube wrap a bit transparent? The brown tube underneath was showing through.

This was probably the weirdest mask I've ever done. The interior core tube was masked off with many pieces of masking tape. The tape wasn't pressed in place, I didn't want to tear or peel up the card stock.
The Main shroud was covered with cut copy paper.

I carefully aimed the gloss white paint to hit the center motor tube and C and L supports.
Finally, much better. Not perfect -  but better. I can sleep tonight.

It's already loaded with a C6-0 motor for a upcoming schoolyard launch.
