So I decided out of simplicity to use duplicator primer. Lets let that be a given?.
How far should a can go? It is a 12 oz can (including propellant).
Also though, is there such a thing as making it so thin that it is actually worse than the original aluminum? Thin enough to etch and promote corrosion without the added protection of the pigment and TiO2 on top?
If I do two passes to make a more color than base metal job it seems good, but the cans don't go super far. I don't mind the expense, just curious if too little is worse than none at all. I might be adding a few pounds to my empennage in this process.
On the skins I decided to just do the rivet lines, more or less. The thin sheet will show corrosion easily enough but will be painted exteriorly.
