Painting Wing Stays

The small amount of time I had this Sunday was spent drilling and preparing the wing stays for painting.

First used a 6mmØ drillbit to get the holes for support bolts. I had marked the spots when the stays were on the car, so it was an easy job.

After that I was going to use some sandpaper on the stays but then went the lazy route and used a steel scrub on the dremmel and cleaned the surface rust and other stuff on the stays.

Gave them a first coat of black spray, taking care not to spray on the area that will be glued to the underside of the wings; if the glue holds to paint, it will not stay long. Will be spraying further layers during the week.

Nothing worth taking pictures of.
