I do not have an MRP diluent, I dilute it when necessary with isopropylic alcohol which works very well but maybe also deteriorates its grip??

 

 

There's your problem. MRP and Gunze Mr. Color are lacquer and should be thinned with lacquer thinner. If you have Gunze Leveling Thinner, use that.

I was degreasing with Isopropyl alcohol

 

Use this for cleaning resin. It's also the best product for cleaning anything plastic. Use two jars with enough Bestine in each to submerge the resin parts. Dip the part in the first jar, swish it around, use a brush to get into the tiny details. Then dip the part in the second jar for a rinse. Let it evaporate.

Hi everyone,

 

What's next?

The footrests.

The compressed air bottles for the hydraulic manual pump.

 

Initially I wanted to add a welding cord.

Teflon masking.

But I did not like it, too rude and I can not make cords of welds thinner. The aluminum straps, bof bof!

I've done it simpler, anyway they hardly will see each other.

The oxygen bottle is also missing a welding cord. There it's easier, bigger!

All that remains is to install all this in the background of the cockpit and plug them in with their pipes.

See you soon,

Sweety
