Estes Curvilinear #3231, Build, Parts 7, White undercoat and Tail Ring Paint

The engine mount was slipped in with a painting wand in place.
A paper towel was rolled and stuffed into the back end to keep any paint out.
White undercoats followed.





The black Rusto Metallic paint is perfect for the tail ring.
After the rings got primer/filler and sanding a white undercoat was applied, then some light sanding with 400 grit.

Masking tape was wrapped sticky side out on the engine casing atop a painting wand. The rings were stuck on the tape and spray painted.





The interior edge of the rings were swiped with a permanent marker. About 3/16" of the inside edge got the ink.
