I can't find anywhere that this fuel tank pad, F-01204N, is addressed outside of the diagram. My question is how it is attached to the bulkhead. I know it will be with countersunk fasteners. Rivets or screws? The channel is thick enough for threading. Fuel tank pad.JPG
 
This is how the sticker looks in my installation. I obviously put it on in section 24-02.

Well, that makes it a bunch easier. Thanks all. Side note, my kit started life as a Legacy. I'm doing all the upgrades the existing airframe will accept. That's why I didn't see a roll of the poly material.

It's attached on page 21iS/U-24 in step 8. I clamped mine down with large spring clamps for a week and it seems to have adhered well.
