Wing component prep
Had several parts come out of primer and the primer failed to stick, significant peeling. My best guess is I didn’t clean the simple green degreaser completely, the parts were bone dry when primed, though colder temps is a possible issue as well. Need to do primer during the day, NOT using that stuff inside the garage. :-)
