Started Priming Flap Parts - 2 hours

Since I have to wait for a day when I can get some help bucking the rivets on the wing skins, I decided to jump back over to the flaps. The manual has you rivet some of the pieces together before they go on the flap skins, so I need to do some priming. It was a nice day outside, so I set up all i needed to prep the spar and the brackets for priming.

The larger pieces got the wash in soapy water, rinse, MEK and prime. While the smaller pieces got an acid bath, MEK, and Prime.


Now we wait a day for it to dry and harden up.
