Wolverine Phoenix AIM-54A, Fix!, Part 6, Filling The Tube Joint

Some CWF was set in place on the tip of a dull knife blade much the same way I normally fill a tube seam.
Some masking tape was set down surrounding the filler line so I wouldn't sand too wide an area around the fill line. 400 grit was used to sand the filler to surface.




The filled seam was masked off about 1/4" on both sides to direct the filler/primer spray. I didn't want primer anywhere else except on the seam.
When the tape was removed the filler/primer was left on the seam area.

400 grit was used to sand the filler/primer to surface. The gray was only left in the low areas. 

This probably won't be an invisible fill but will look better than the long body tube.
