Bottom of Hull

The bottom is completely finished. It was color sanded to 2000 grit, then polished. The speckles and film "wool fibers" want to stick to the hull because of static. This part of the project came out great !

Polishing Fuel Tanks

Here I used a 3" very fine flap sander chucked in a die grinder. Looks like with some effort these tanks will clean up ! We will see...
Here is the condition of the fuel tanks. These guys don't look so good, years of grime, rust and overspray.

The entire hull is color sanded to 2000 grit before polishing
