Centuri Satellite 62SL Build Part 8 Applying Paper Trim

The main body wrap is cut to size using a razor blade and straightedge.

You could use spray adhesive on the back, but lately I've been using a glue stick with good results.

The bottom edge of the wrap sits right on the leading edge joint of the fins.
The top should line up with the top of the body tube.

Use a toothpick to hold the fin overlay pieces down while you apply the glue stick over the back.

When using a glue stick, the glued back is a bit slippery and allows the piece to be slid around for best positioning.




The fin tip pieces are wound around the ends of the antenna fins.

It's hard to get the first edge to adhere. Use the flat side of a razor blade to hold it down until the overlay wrap is on top.

Once you get the first full turn, the rest of the wrap goes around easily.

I had a little overlap at the top of the body tube.

Simply sand over the top and the excess overhang will roll off.
