This is addressed to the person deciding to paint, or not paint the spars
before covering the wings:
I believe you decided to paint the spars.
Just be absolutely sure you use only paint that is compatible with the
solvents in the glue and other chemicals used in covering.
If you are using the Polyfiber products - this means epoxy on the spars (or
urethane, but then you would use epoxy under the urethane anyway)
Lacquer, enamel and other hardware store paints will pucker and peel leaving
you with a real mess when covering.
Sincerely,
Dave S.

Yes Dave, very good point and that is why I recommended 2 pot paint at the beginning of this thread, and just about every single type won't stand MEK from what I've experienced. John A.
