     I completely sheeted the wing and covered the entire model with 1/2oz 
glass and Z-poxy finishing resin.  I covered that with white epoxy primer.  I 
used Sign Painter's Flourescent paint in Blue, Green, Red, and Chartreuse and 
covered that with Del-Glo clear coat.  I took out the orange peel with 2000 
grit sandpaper and polished it with McGuire's.  I used a Moki 150 with a pipe 
and smoke.  It swings an APC 16x8 at 9600.

     I'm not a fan of Poly-urethane.  The curing is iffy and the clear is too 
yellow.
     I used Century 21 stuff on my F4U.  Mistake.  It sags in the hot car and 
cracks appear in cold weather.  It takes a heat gun to cure both.  Months 
later it will take fingerprints after being in the car.
