Enter Sandman


Started sanding the strip area on the starboard side today, with the 80grit sandpaper it went pretty fast. The colored mottling is from exposure of all the different ply layers, in reality the surface is as smooth as it gets. After a couple more intense sanding sessions I hope to be able to start with the bog (slang for fairing compound).


Here is the rotary air sander I've been using for truing the flares, its old and beat up, but still works great. I'm able to get into the curved area's because of the thick foam pad. More sanding tomorrow.
