The tip of the nose cone has a small bit o molding flash (left side)

On the right side the tip has been sanded and rolled off. Start with 220 grit and go progressively to 400 grit.


The nose cone molding seam was filled with plastic model  putty.
You can also lay a bead of medium Super Glue down the recesses. Be careful, the glue can run.
Sand down the filler bead of glue again with 220 grit working down to 400 grit.


The main body tube wrap seam was filled with CWF and sanded to surface.
Follow up with a spray of filler/primer and sanding with 400 grit.
