Powder coat. The naysayers will say you can't see cracks. If applied correctly
and not too thick I don't believe that will be a problem. It's great to work
with and you can do it indoors. The Eastwood sprayer and paint is much better
than the Harbor Freight stuff. I bought an oven for $50 and also made a 4 foot
hight oven out of 8 or 10 inch duct for about $15...

A few years ago I wanted to do some powder coating using Eastwood equipment. I
asked the folks around work to let me know if they saw any stoves on the curb
with "FREE" signs on them. Within a week I had my oven- for FREE!

I agree with jack on powder coat. Super easy. Super tough. I bought the largest
toaster oven I could find. Used for cylinders, ring gear, fittings etc.
Eastwood sprayer kit.

Steve;
Not to tell a ground-pounder like yourself what to do (I hold no rank whatsoever),
but if you ever so slightly break the edges of the metal panels, they will
fit tighter to the fabric around the edges. I think the EAA chapter 35 has sheet
metal brakes in the chapter hangar, but if you're careful and patient you
can also do it with hand-held seaming pliers by marking a break line and then
working your way down the panel along the line till you have a smooth, even break.
I also recommend that you fasten the leading edge of the access panel lest
the high Mach speeds pull it away from the airplane. Or maybe if you add
a slight break to the leading edge of the panel, it will hug the fabric and prevent
the slipstream from getting under the metal and flapping it.
