Group,
I have my ES upside down and have completed the body work on the belly and
main gear fairings including rolled on WLS filler/primer. I've got it all
sanded with 80 grit on long boards. I'm planning on using PPG primer and
Deltron color and clear coats. My questions are: Does it sound reasonable to
put on a guide coat and just simply sand out the 80 grit scratches with 220
grit? Would that be an adequate surface for spraying on the primer? And if
so, how big a deal would it be to put off the spraying of primer til later
when the plane is right side up? I have no spray equipment yet and would
like to put it off for now and flip the plane over.  I suspect however that
a sprayed on coat or two of primer may not fill those scratches. Can I
assume there is no major problem with spraying upside down. Thanks in
advance.
