I suppose I could have just glopped it on and been done with it in one shot. Sort of a plasti-dip for balsa parts.... The glue is thick enough for doing that. Maybe I'll try that with the fins. But I chose to do thin coats on the nose cone, with light sanding between coats. Pete Alway recommended doing that in his Astrobee 1500 kit that I built, so I just went with that. Makes for a nice looking part.
