Leroy,
There are several methods indoorists have described here. You'll
have 1/2 hr. of reading if you do a group box search using "patching"
search term (accessed from the website messages page.) I'll try to
find my most recent article about it. It's unnecessarily tedious for
beauty effect, but that seems to be what you are after. Basically,
it involves getting the film stuck to a piece of very supple tissue,
with as few wrinkles in the film as possible. Water is usually the
only needed adhesive, both for sticking to tissue and sticking to
structure to be patched. If the surface to be patched is either non-
flat (ie a wing camber) or large (more than 1/2 inch hole) I also
support the "shape" underneath the structure with something such as
with a small pillow that matches camber.
HTH,
