Empennage

Elevator  ( 3.5 hrs )

Prime baby, Prime !    Before starting further assembly, need to prime specific parts and surfaces that have their Alclad scratched, etc.    Scuffed, cleaned with acetone, and sprayed  - nice to do outside in 70 deg weather.   Lots of parts to scuff...took considerable time.
most but not all parts scuffed, ready to clean...then spray primer

removed tape on screws, and over labels on parts (critical for orientation, etc).  
I taped over labels on good Alclad surfaces, so don't require priming.
