One other thought- I just found out that 3m has changed their formulation of 77 spray. The new formulation apparently contains acetone which will melt foam core wings. If you have a can of the good old stuff, use it sparingly. They do have a non-acetone formula available, but I have not heard of anyone using it.
Here's a link to the PDf file from 3M on 77 spray adhesive. It appears that it does now contain Acetone.

The good news it that 3M makes another spray adhesive called 78 which is specifically designed for insulation foam, which wings are usually cut from.

3M 78 also has an equal or higher peel strength and temperature resistance than 77.
