One of the best ways to finish your fuse is to start with Krylon sandable primer. Sand this down with 360 or 400 wet sandpaper till it's almost off and fuse has a nice sheen. Spray with Kryon or Duplicolor (automive touch-up paint). Let dry over night. Sand down with 400 wet to just cut the paint surface. Then sand with 2000 grit sandpaper. Be careful not to sand through the paint. Once you have a dull sheen, polish out with 3M Finesse. This is a white liquid polishing mixture used to -you guessed it- take out 2000 sanding scratches. You should try a small section to get it just the way you want as a test and go from there. This will take a couple of hours one night but your finish will be mirror perfect. Your fuse will look like a molded finish. After a season of hard flying I find I just shoot from the wing TE forward, sand out and polish and it looks like a new fuse. It will take a little time to get it just right but well worth it.
