Step 8
Use an epoxy brush to apply epoxy to the mating surfaces
of the wing ribs of both wing panels.
Step 9
After everything has been coated with epoxy, slide the two
wing panels together. Use low-tack tape to keep the two
panels held tightly together until the epoxy cures.
Important
: There should be an excess
of epoxy that will ooze from between the
two wing panels. If not, you have not used
enough epoxy to join the wing panels.
Hint
: You can use paper towels soaked
in rubbing alcohol to remove the excess
epoxy from the wing before it can cure.
Step 10
Once the epoxy has fully cured, apply the 1 x 12-inch
(25mm x 305mm) white covering to the joint made by
the two wing panels. You will need to use a covering iron
to apply the material. Trim this strip to match where the
center section color meets the Lozenge.
