LightningMk6 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Incredible Phantom refurb, spot on and a great talent. Takes me all my time to do an original, never mind a strip down and repaint. Never knew you could strip down the paint job with something like Mr Muscle oven cleaner, you learn something new everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John B Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'm reminded of many Hornets, Phantoms, and Tomcats I've seen come out of re-work with corrosion repaired, worn parts replaced, and fresh strip & repaint. How did you manage to keep the stripper out of the cockpit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMCS Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Like the model. The Phantom has to be one of my favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you manage to keep the stripper out of the cockpit? Been away on business trip - sorry for delay in responding. I packed the cockpit with wet tissue and that worked a treat - totally protected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
