That dried CA is very hard and will take some careful sanding with 220 grit on a block, followed by 400 grit.
While sanding the CA down to the seams I took a little off the plastic "transitional" edges. Those edges lost their sharpness.
The picture at the right shows a strip of 20 lb. paper I cut for a wrap. It is taped on the cardboard for spraying with self adhesive.
Directly to the left is the nose cone area where the wrap will be positioned.
Between the base of the cover plates and above transition at the shoulder.
While this strip will raise the area slightly, it'll look better than the rounded off edges.
On the left is the nose cone with the paper strip added. On the right is an original nose cone half.
After priming, I sanded the paper edge very lightly with 400 grit to take down any fuzziness and a bit of the edge.
