Default RE: joining wing center section

Bad luck with todays effort. This is the reason to try this out on a not so imprortant model.
First problem lots of creases and wrinkles that would not go away no matter how much I stsreatched and pulled and brushed. I do not remembr this being a problem the first time I used this material. would it do any good to iron this stuff.

second problem. after putting the plastic wrap and foam and weights on the covered section the whole slimey mess slid toward the trailing edge of the wing abut 3 inches befor i saw what was happening. So pulled it up and tried to reapply it. wrinkles got worse.

the game plan now is to order new fiber glass and try again.
