    YIKES!

    Was the box submerged and thrown in the freezer before shipping or sitting out on the open deck of a freighter as it crossed The Atlantic?

    Not very encouraging news as I was just about to order a 2m Vertigo from them.

    Re: Badan 35% Yak 55

    There is also a lot of black spray oil like residue on some of the sheets, The cowl was really banged up and cracked also need to order cf and do a lot of repairs on it, it's also missing some of the exterior fillets. This is probably why I am dragging my feet so much on this one.


    The packaging and shipping of the vertigo had no issues, no damage no warping or weird stuff.

    LOL. I like your thinking!!

    All joking aside, that is the beauty with auto base clear and Klasskote epoxy paint and a good auto primer..as long as you use a good tape it could sit like this for weeks and no issues. It was even unaffected by the vinyl masks which sat for a few days!

    I still would not hesitate on ordering a vertigo, I think they just packed the yak really bad the cowl was actually folded in, and yeah it looks like the plywood was dropped under a wet car that leaked oil.
