Well just an up date

Cleaned it with acetone, it was so thin the acetone on a rag went through in a coupla spots, skuffed it a bit with 89 grit paper used west system epoxy, 3 oz cloth cut in to triangles got it done and it realy stifined it up added some c/f at the mounting points. onlt added 4 oz total to it.

So now its time to add air control baffles. Any way had my hot glue gun out doing a "honny do" thingy so i put a glob in a damaged cowl and just stucka piece on lite ply in it. next day when I remembered it tried to pull it off, and the ply let go before the hot glue. So I am thinking of using the hot glue to hold the baffles.

any thougth's
