If you want to augment the adhesive, get some Loctite contact cement, nasty
stuff as its got MEK in it then get a can of MEK, nasty stuff cause its MEK,
thin the Loctite contact cement to a brushable liquid consistency with the
MEK then brush it on surfaces to be covered.
It will most certainly "augment" the Oracover adhesive. Use all the common
sense precautions when using this method, cover the top/bottom in one
piece, wrapping the Oracover around the trailing edge. Careful not to
"glue" the Oracover together when shrinking in the thin TE area.

Subject: [RCSE] Re-covering an Organic
All,
I've decided to re-cover my 2M Organic with Hobby Lobby Poly Cover since
they advertise it's the same as Oracover. I was wondering if the covering
adhesive will stick to the composite frame. If not, what can be used to
augment the adhesive and what is the process for using additional
adhesive. I've covered about a dozen planes with Monokote and have had
pretty good results. This is my first experience with "Oracover" and
covering over Carbon/Kevlar.
Thank you for your help.
Mike
