looking really good. the Tetra will need a fuselage face lift in the next few years. not a total gel/paint removal like you've done, but still a huge amount of labor.

Rolled on two coats of Duratec Vinyl ester surfacing primer, sanding tomorrow.

Are you going to finish with the Duratec high gloss coating? Has this ever been used on gliders before?
