Brief Description:  Fuselage sanding and primer

I know very well that the fuselage is far from being flawless. Seemingly changing every time it sits in the sun for a long time. I know this is the process of post cure and at some point it will be finished curing but it's really amazing how a perfectly level surface can be changed so much during post cure. Either way it means more sanding until the process is complete.
I sanded down all of the delam areas that were fixed and a few obvious ripples that needed smoothing out, but I can tell that I'm only tackling a few of them and need to save the final contouring for it's wrap or paint job.
I was able to lay down 2 thin coats of primer just before I was almost out. I put the rest of the primer in the refrigerator so that after I spot fill these areas, I'll be able to coat them at least once more. I'm sure I don't have enough for final primer though so I ordered more grey.
