Deburring, dimpling, and priming the horizontal stabilizer – Part 3
The kit’s previous owner had already primed the front spar, inspar ribs, stringers, and stringer web. That left the nose ribs, rear spar, and skins. We’re prepping by scuffing with ScotchBrite and cleaning with acetone. For primer, we’re using SEM self-etching primer–I’ve heard good things about it, the previous owner used it, and he gave us a few cans. Works for me. We sprayed it outside, for obvious reasons. Here I am doing one of the HS skins.
