Where can I find good updated instructions for SIKA canopy RV7 bonding?

I have the original instructions from the pioneer in South Africa, but there must be better ways to do it by now. Is everyone still using spacers?

I don't have them in writing but I've done a few. Fly over to KDWA, you can see mine (6 years old now) and the one I'm currently finishing for a friend.

Reach me at yoloflyer (at) gmail (period) com or Five 3 Zero two 19 3 seven seven 1. I'm at my hangar most days, including today till around 5.

Here's my installation process:

Scroll down to 5/28/2012, the beginning of my Sika install. Bottom line, this was a great way to mount the canopy.

I am at the Petaluma airport if you want to see mine and discuss the process. I used two web logs as a reference, Bruce Hill's and Bruce Swayze's with some minor modifications.

Done a 7 and an 8 and didn't use spacers. Both fine. Just need to finesse the technique of piping the triangular bead.

Clamp carefully and then back fill with Sika.

Building 2 12's and will be looking carefully at using Sika to attach the canopies on them.
