I'm wondering what those that glassed over cowl rivet lines used and how much of the cowl rivet lines did you really cover?
It seems to me that you can cover all the way out to the hinge edges and then fight getting the edge straight again or just barely cover the rivet line and maybe you won't get a line that shows where the glass lays between the rivet line and the edge?
I have some 1.8 oz glass and I was considering going not quite to the edge and then just fill and sand lightly with one layer of the light glass. I really don't want to mess with the edges again as they are just about right but I don't want to have a bump where the rivet line is covered?
Any thoughts, comments, help from those that covered them would be appreciated.
Then again, the rivet lines are very flush and the hinges are glued in and shouldn't move so is it really worth the trouble?
Thanks Bill S
