Thread: My 2a freshen up

Couldn't help myself it was bugging me, put a straight edge on bulkhead...........eureka stress has come from within cabin as suggested.


Put trim back on doors they will be wrapped and stored


Flight deck gauges after warm up temp never goes above 140f


got family staying for a few days so not much will be happening


Cheers Paul

Hey Paul, what's the paint colour / code you're using ?

Thanks
John

Hi John here is the paint code


Cheers Paul

Got the vent controls and vents painted, plus got the bonnet stripped for paint.
Have another lot of visitors so progress is slowing.
Apparently four eyed 2a,s are around.....
Cheers Paul

Thanks for the paint info Paul, much appreciated.


Cheers,
John

Hi Paul, How fast drying is this paint, The paint I was going to use dries in less than 2 hr but I can't find the supplier in Brisbane (went there today & the building has been sold & no sign up to say where they have gone)
I have 3 lit's of my paint left but don't think it will be enough to paint Landy inside & out & touch up the chassis were needed. Other 80" LR's I have done usually take 4 lit's

Paint is basically dry in 24 hrs but I leave it for a couple of days before I wrap and store parts.........plus I use an etch primer underneath
I think its a cheap and cheerful paint not a twopac or whatever.
Cheers Paul

Visitors gone nice to catch-up but nice to have our space back

One of our visitors found a pearl in one of our bush oysters we've been hopeing to find one for years


Started on left wing I'm going to sand and clean up as much as I can before removal as its easier than on the bench


indicators and side lights have a good solid bases although lenses need replacing, one of the wire insulations has cracked not plastic maybe original?


got first coat on underside of bonnet,plus 3rd on vents
