I still find that a good mouthful of salive brushed on does a nice job of
removing the wrinkles. If they reappear you have the solution at the
ready.

I started using the rubber cement diluted with Bestine for covering, as
Jake has described several times: lightly brush the outline with the
solution, let dry, place on covering, then re-activate glue using brush
dipped in Bestine. I love this method, especially for covering the prop.


I decided to use the same solution to remove the dihedral wrinkles. The
wrinkles are gone, but there are two problem. The big problem is that
the rubber cement remains a little bit tacky and will stick to other
flying surfaces. The second is that Bestine evaporates quickly, so the
solution does not penetrate as much of the joint. This means that more
of the solution is needed, which means more weight and more stickiness.


So don't use thinned rubber cement to remove dihedral wrinkles!
