Ray, the process pictures allow us a chance to relate even closer to the
pride you must feel on the final product. I would bet those Columbia
(Cessna's) are feeling lonely on the ramp next to N419RV, that is one
fast paint job.

The deal I made with the painter was that I would do all the prep of the fiberglass including spraying them with 2K buildup primer. I also did all the dis-assembly and re-assemble. It took about 12 man hours to do the dis-assemble, which included removing all fiberglass parts, inspection plates, trim motors, wheel pants, gearleg fairings, antenna's, cowl and spinner. Basically anything that could be removed, was, include the data plate. It then took about 18 man hours to do the re-assembly which included installing the wing walk material and the Teflon tape to the flaps. Since I ran out of time prepping the plane, the painter had to spray the build up primer on the doors and cabin top, the rest I had done, so he charged me $70 hours for that work. The total bill was $6620.
A friend of mine dropped in on me when I was re-assembling the plane at the paint shop and got a quote for his 3 color paint scheme for his RV-9A. He quoted him $4500 if he completed all the fiberglass prep work up to and including the 2K primer and $6500 if the painter had to do it all.
The painter is based on the field at Miami County Airport in Paola, Kansas (K81), also great BBQ restaurant on the field as well. The company is called Aircraft Refinishing Company Inc. and here is a link to there web site. http://aircraftrefinishingco.com/index.html

So Ray, did you do all the tape work for the stripes, etc or just the bare
metal and fiberglass work. Did that include an etch primer or did they
alodine it, prime it, etc. What kind of paint system did they use? Imron,
PPG, etc?
Great looking airplane!

Thanks.
No, the painter did all the masking and tape line, I wanted no part of that. The paint is Imron AFS400. The white is single stage and the netalic's are cleared. Yes, the price included all the products and labor to spray the etch wash primer, primer and color and strips.
Thank You
Ray Doerr
