      Thank you Grossman56.
      I might have gone overboard on these two.

        I'm getting ready to repaint my E-flite 80mm Phantom, and as I've posted before the scary part for me is the primer. Once you get a coat to stick, the rest is pretty routine, though time consuming if done right.

        Does scuffing the foam work? It does in most any paint application, but just a little worried about damaging the outer "coat" of a molded foam piece.

        BTW, jetman, have a fond place in my heart for the T-28, which I flew in 1979 in primary flight training.
