Painting question

[skaffgeorge2]

Hey all, this is for anyone who has built a FSI Viking, how do you get a good result on painting the inside of the stabilizing tubes?It has me scratching my head a little at the moment.It isn't built yet but I want to know going in instead of wasting time later on trying to figure it out.I have two of them, Viking1 and 2.

I would advise a few coats of brush paint for tube insides. I don't have the FSI Viking but I have several other rockets with internal tube paint.

Mask off the outside, then spray the inside. Peel off the masking on the outside after you get a couple of coats on. Now wait. You want to be *absolutely* certain the paint on the inside is cured completely, because you're going to have to tape and mask the inside, if you're going to paint a different color.
