Thanks,
I think I've got enough to go with now. We'll see if I can get to
it tonight.

and set the wing down starting at the untaped edge and carefully
roll the wing towards the taped edge. If you are very careful this
method will work very well and you can get a very tight, smooth
covering. Old fashioned lighter fluid can be used to release the 3M
but it will leave a residue on the paper that will let everyone know
that you goofed. <grin> I try to do my covering as soon as possible
after ironing and I use a heat lamp shining on the workbench to keep
humidity as low as I can. Some use a hotbox to keep humidity as
close to 0% as they can but I am a bit too clumsy to work in a box.
