Primed Instrument Panel

Sorry for the blurry picture, but I primed the instrument panel tonight.  I applied a little filler last night and first had to sand it smooth.

I filled all of the rivets that attach the reinforcement angle.

I also filled the filler rivets I pull in.  Here are the ones on the sides that would normally be used to attach the air vents.

This is one of the two rivets that fill the holes below the SkyView screens.  These are normally used to attach the panel to the forward ribs.

After cleaning the panel, I primed the back and front.  I put the primer on fairly heavy on the front so that I can sand it a bit before shooting the top coat.  I’d like to make that as smooth as possible.
