That does look cool! The reason Carver had grey paint down there before was so owners could easily see any stress spider cracks. Not all that relative on a 530 with those big channel style stringers. Great Job! 8-) er

I was hoping to find a volunteer to paint outboard of my mains! I haven't done that part yet.

Thanks! I had an exhaust leak years back that dulled the paint. Lots left to paint. I spent one day each on the motors alone. All brushed on.
