I will be interested in this! Sounds great. Should make a progress thread.

Stick with it haha you'll get in a rhythm. Very time consuming, but it gets better as you figure it out. I'm tackling the hood and sideskirts tomorrow. Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel

ive never used butyl glue before, so i figure, stick with what i know.

at this point, i figure the difference between the 2 is that i cant exactly baked the silicone if i needed to tear it apart again.

will probably practice with butyl glue on an old set. if anyone have tips with butyl glue ill buy you a beer! haha
