I sent mine back on Monday too. I expect to get my new one in a week or two.

What did you use to paint your spinner that did not give you good results? I was hoping to paint mine..

The same auto paint I used for the rest of the plane. The only problem areas were under the bolt heads. As I tightened the bolts, the paint gave way under them leaving unsightly chips. If I did it again, I'd mask off the surfaces.
