I saw a post today about someone looking for tips on painting Polyethylene nosecones, and I couldn't find what Mike Fisher had sent me before I went to work, and lost the thread.
Mike responded to me, and this is what he says to do for painting his nosecones:
Thanks Mike!
Hope this helps others in the future.
Mike responded to me, and this is what he says to do for painting his nosecones:
Use 120 grit on a random orbital sander. Then a couple heavy coats of sandable primer. It will look like crap at this point, all fuzzy covered in primer. Now sand that out with 300 or 400 grit and prime again. Should look good enough for paint at this point, but hit it again with the 400 grit and put your color on after that.
Thanks Mike!
Hope this helps others in the future.
