Touch-up proseal on side steps - 2 hours

 I need to touch up the proseal on the side steps. I do not want water to sit on the top of the side step flange, so the best solution is to have a good fillet of proseal on the top and sides of the side step. I don't enjoy working with proseal so lets just get this over with.


 I applied a health fillet of proseal around the side step. As well I used a syringe to get proseal tucked into the corners. 


 A bit of proseal as well along the bottom skin of the wing area.


 Then I bunch of cleanup with a rag and MEK. Yuck I hate this stuff.


Since I have a little time on my hands. I also installed all of the ends on the control rods and push tubes. I torqued all of the Jam nuts.

 UPDATE - Don't bother installing the control rod ends and jam nuts on the F-789 pushrod. In order to fit the rod into the fuse they must be removed and installed once the pushrod is slid into place.
