Not a big mistake. Brush on another thinned coat where you put it on too
thin. The pink color is to let you know when you have more or less
uniformly filled the weave. No need to spray on an extra coat. Brush
marks will all come out with the iron, which melts the vinyl-based
Poly-Brush and causes it to flow out into the weave. If you'll notice the
manual calls for using the iron as much as you can to smooth out the coat so
you don't have to do so much sanding after you've gotten the aluminum-flake
Poly-Spray on. Matter of fact judicious use of the iron gives you more
help than sanding the Poly-Spray for that nice smooth fabric job.

I'm envious of you. I enjoy covering a ragwing airplane.

I applied the first coat of Poly-Brush on a little more than half of my
fuselage (experimental homebuilt) before I realized I had not stirred the
can of Poly-Brush before using. Once the contents from the bottom were
stirred up the coating was definitely a darker shade of pink. Is this

going
to be a problem? If so, should I perhaps spray an extra Poly-Brush coat
when the time comes? I suspect applying a second brush coat would leave
visible brush marks.
