If any problems are found that the owner does not know about, we contact them.
Upon arrival of airplane we do a complete inspection of the plane checking all lights for operation and inspecting aircraft for damage, corrosion, plastic/fiberglass fairings and window condition.
To prepare for chemical stripping, all flight controls are removed, along with any removable composite fairings.
Windows are masked using heavy duty foil to protect from chemical burns.
The landing gear and antennas are masked off along with the interior door jambs and the aircraft is pressure washed.

When every inch of the airplane is stripped, the plane is pressure washed, the door jambs will be cleaned and sanded, and we move to degreasing the landing gear and sand all of the gear for paint.
At this point we will remove the inspection plates and do any needed repairs on the airframe.
All the fiberglass is sanded down to the gelcoat or further depending on the condition of the gelcoat.
When all the paint is removed we begin repairing and defects, such as cracks or other damage and commonly find the need to redo poorly done previous repairs.

The plane and landing gear is masked off for primer using a very detail process.
This includes the interior, and engine compartment.
The Axalta corrosion resistant primer can now be applied, and the base white directly over this.
With the base white on we can now start laying out the design of the owners choice.
All the layout is painstakingly done by hand paying close attention to every detail, then painted with a large range of colors.
The assembly process starts with checking the balance of the controls, any control out of balance will adjusted with removal or the addition of weight.
