Default RE: covering cowl

Hey there. This is where a good heat gun helps. The best to get is an adjustable gun so you can use just the right ammount of heat. When you start covering you iron down the edges, be sure to have extra like the above post so you have something to grab, use your heat gun to heat the covering and pull it around the curves. Ultracote works really nice around corners. After you get it molded then hold it until it cools. Finish ironing and trim. I then like to take thinned epoxy and seal the edges and inside of the engine compartment area, that will keep the edges from peeling
