I let 1 bid cure in the spoon, unmolded it from the spoon, cut and sanded the
edges a little until it fit nicely on the wing, then made a hole in the
fiberglass shell that just matched the socket (covered with a layer of thin
packing tape).
I then screwed in the drain, placed the socket over it, added a liberal amount of
micro around the socket, pressed the fiberglass shell over the socket and micro
and cleaned up the excess micro.
After cure I removed the socket and voila! All in all a 15 min. job.
The fairings could be made without the fibreglass shell by simply cutting the
handle off the spoon, making the hole in the spoon and using the spoon as a mold
over the micro, I just like to have the 1 bid covering the micro, this way the
edges will be much stronger and I won´t ruin the shape of the fairing if I
accidently hit it with a piece of sandpaper during preparation for paint.
