What
is the best material to use to fill dents and depressions on
surfaces prior to covering?
>Again, the best material for this purpose is SuperFil. SuperFil
is an epoxy filler than will not shrink with time. Most fillers,
such as Bondo, are polyester. That means they will shrink over time
resulting in cracks on the surface of the paint. SuperFil is spread
over the area using a squeegee or paint scraper. It should be
applied in temperatures above 60 degrees to be sure it dries
properly.
The
leading edges of my wings are wrinkled and uneven. What can I do
without filling the entire surface?
>Use polyester padding to hide all of these uneven surfaces. This
is a special, thick cloth that you can apply directly to the leading
edge surface. Use only Poly-Fiber polyester padding. Using some type
of felt, etc. may cause problems when the chemicals are applied.
How
do I apply the polyester padding?
>Simply use our fabric cement (Poly-Tak) to cement it to the
leading edge.
How
can I glue fabric to the leading edge if padding is in place?
>You can't. You must use a sewn envelope if you are going to use
polyester padding. You cannot cement to the padding itself.
