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.

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
