Sanded all the paint off of the nose cone,then washed it in soap and water.Found some Rustolium auto grey primer.Shot a light coat on and then after 30 min. repainted.Really turned out great.Will in the future use Dupli-color .I'm going to start on my second V2 soon.Going with epoxy and Titbond II not really going to worry about weight.I should add I painted the rocket apple red and will put some black pin stripes on it,not carzy about the yellow and black and not concerned about accurate paint schemes.I happen to like red.lolThanks to all for their responses.I'll post a picture when finished.Going to let the nose cone cure for 3 or 4 days.
