    Thanks everyone. I want to get some good progress in these next few days as I'll be away on a ski weekend next week - cutting it close to the deadline.

    Thanks Harrison, Glenn, Jan.

    I bit more added detail. I found this rather late but another modeller I saw on the net figures there are exhausts for the main wing heater in the upper main wing surfaces per the below drawing:

    he219ad_007a.jpg

    Tamiya provided a circular panel but not the small holes suggested by the diagram so I drilled these out like the other guy did. This seems a bit speculative as I've not seen any photos/profiles/drawings to support this other than the one above it but makes sense.

    Here's how many spots I fixed after small imperfections were seen on the prime coat:

    I'll post pics soon of the RLM 75 going on. Stay tuned.

    No worries Terry. I'm not going to plug them now if they're not quite right!

    OK, the RLM 75 has been sprayed on. Below is an overall shot and the one under that is the repaired cowl seam and panel line on the engine nacelle from yesterday's post. It didn't turn out perfect but it's good enough, especially once the squiggles go on. I'll let the 75 dry overnight then tackle these tomorrow.

    Ciao for now.

    Nice! And I agree about the corrected joint - it won't be seen under the welle and clear coats.
