Cut through at the nose cone joint with a new razor blade.
I don't normally use Future clear coats. I find it unnecessary.
It will hold down an exposed edge that could be subject to peeling back.
On the left, a Q-tip was used as a brush to seal the decal on the leading edges.
On the right, another decal where the edge ends at the body tube.
The Kevlar was tied to the elastic shock cord using a simple overhand knot.
I'll trim off some of that excess.
In the comments I was warned about how easily the fins will break off on a hard landing. There's not much of a root edge to glue onto the body tube.
I decided to slow the descent with a streamer.
It'll probably still break off, but I gave it a try.
The body tube is short, but I could fit in the wadding, streamer and nose cone!
