Stitch, Try using a "HOT" wash cloth draped over the dented area. This can many times bring the ding up enough it is less noticeable or even make it disappear. Best, LB

That hasn't been painted over. And I'm surprised they offered money off for that. I read the post and expected to see damage, I then saw the pics and it was not what I expected. I treat my foam edf's with kid gloves, they lay on cushions in the van yet still have many little dents like that. In fact, Checking CG on most larger foam jets with your fingers will put a larger dent in it. If you layed it on anything hard and not totally flat, it will put a slight mark on it.

That's partially why I coat my finished plane with 4 coats of clear spar urethane. Seems like the foam dents if you look at it cross eyed.😉 The clear coat adds a more durable finish, which I found unfortunately doesn't help a bit when crashing. 😤

I'm not sending it back,just kinda upset was some damage not bad enough for me to send back.i have a 8 ft table I use to unpack all my planes on.i have many planes from them only one I ever got damage on,guess lucky!

[stitch]
