VS 1014 Rear Spar Caps

I'm New Here
I finally started working on my Empennage kit today. I cut both VS 1014 Rear Spar Caps and started deburring one of them. However, when I was deburring it with my grinder, utilizing the Scotch Brite 7A MED wheel, I noticed that the wheel scraped part of the inner side (See picture) of the Rear Spar Cap. It looks like something that I shouldn't worry about, but I'll sleep better if I get an expert opinion :). This also may blend in when I prep the surface for priming with the Scotch Brite pad, right?

Very respectfully,

Michael Pascucci

That may be the first, but it won't be the last little boo-boo you have on parts (at least that's true in my case). Once you scuff it up with scotchbrite and prime, you'll never know it was there. Full disclosure - I'm about as far from an expert as possible.
 
Look at it this way...your primer will stick real good to that location. Keep building away!
