Wing walk looks nice and shiny new! How gritty is this compared to the wing walk compound?

It’s a much smaller size grit.  I really just wanted to freshen up the color.  Chose this product on a whim.  It was sitting next to the flat black on the shelf.  Lol.

Wow, how did you prevent overspray with just a couple lines of masking tape?

Edit: Oh, I just noticed all the plastic drop cloth in the last photo

 

Call me paranoid but I covered the whole plane.  Dropped the flaps and put a towel in the groove to prevent any drips rolling off.

I specially like the towel on the prop!

Nothing wrong with protecting your investment.... wingwalk paint is pretty thick, but I've seen regular paint hang in the air (travel) a long long way

I'd call that prudent, not paranoid.  I'd also imagine that wasn't just "a couple hours" of work
