This is a look back over the last two years of learning how to paint a foam airplane. I will leave out all of the mistakes parts to spare you.
My First project for a kid that I taught to fly, who crashed ,so I repaint it.
All of these planes have a "Minwax" coating base of at least three to six coats. All are painted using Rustoleum 2X paint. All of my graphics are from "Callie Graphics". I find for me the Rustoleum clear coat works best, two to three coats. Yes there was alot of prep after removing the decals , sanding and filling. I use YELLOW "Frog" low tack tape to mask the plane. I also use a heat gun set on low to remove my tape.
The two T-28 Trojans , are from two civilian planes I found on Goggle.
Each plane has been a learning experience for me and I try to do different things with the next plane to try new stuff.
