I agreed with GG's advice and proceeded to cutting out the damaged areas and made new pieces to fit. With a new exacto, I was able to cut out the damaged areas with ease. With the new pieces, glue and activator, I started in on my reconstruction of the leading edge. Well to make a long story short, it didn't go as planned. It flat lined on me several times as I continually tried to resuscitate while holding, gluing and keeping my fingers from gluing together. It got messy and went down hill from there. The "foam safe glue" and activator ate up the foam and solidified it into a hard solid ball. I pulled the blanket up over its head and called the time of death.

After a few days of seriously thinking about what happened I worked up a plan to bring Frankenstein back to life again. After cutting out the ball of solidified foam, the replacement area is now twice the size. With the new pieces and 5 minute epoxy, I will reconstruct once again. If any one else has a better process, I think 5 minute epoxy will work.
