Hi fellows: In my search for information on covering foam wings, I found an article by a well known scale scratch builder who made the statement, "Use only epoxy", for an adhesive. His trial and error over the years lead him to use this adhesive so that any alignment problems could be corrected before the epoxy cured. Other articles suggested using a small paint roller
so that only a light coat was applied. Returning the wings to the shucks, and weighting them down brought forth good covered wings.
My reading about the expansion by the gorilla glues, was not something I wanted to contend with. I have several models with foam wings to cover this winter, and after edge gluing the balsa sheets together, will attach them to the foam cores using 45 min epoxy. I have several articles on covering foam wings, and can send copies, or internet sites if I am contacted.
