super coverite edges
I just covered a rudder with Super Coverite and it was very easy to apply. It stretches easily around curves. It did leave a bit of a frayed edge here and there and I also got the impression that the glue was not as strong as monocote or ultracote.
How can I go about neatening up the joints? I was thinking about applying some thin dope along the joint. Would that work?
As for strength, I think I will use balsarite or stixit around the edges on the rest of the plane. Might not be necessary but it couldn't hoit.

Tacking it down better is what I need. There are little threads loose here and there but the CA should take care of it. I was concerned about the thin CA running rapidly and covering too large an area.
