Now I have to paint the doors and boot cowl and then stripe it. I was told I could wet sand the paint with some 2000 grit and dull the finnish. I thought I would buff the fabric out then dull the paint and try to buff it back to where the gloss is about the same. Anybody ever done anything like that before. After the shiny paint I found out how wavy the cowl is. I'm about to get the extra plane out of my hangar, so I'll have room to start building me a W-10 this winter. I'll use all the prefab cowling, pants, etc. that I can get...............Bob 149
