Default RE: Covering tight corners, how to?

I cut thin (3/16-1/4") strips, that are about 4" longer than the joint. I then fold the strips lengthwise to create a crease. I iron the strip down to the stab and fuse, starting at the back where there is less curve to deal with, then using the extra length to pull the strip tight, I iron it down around the leading edge. I cover the fuse and stab with seperate peices. It's a lot easier to do with Ultracote than Monokote.
