small update today:
had the body supported on stands upsidedown. Five hours to
grind away (most effective method) the Flex Seal crap that had been sprayed on. It is rubberised and nothing sticks to it.
The remaining bonding material simply peeled away. FRP won't stick either!
As I had previously filled the rood vent, the inside "bump" was also cut away and a layer of 'glass matt applied. Because I'm using the Grassbank rear screen, the back of the roof section on the body had lost much rigidity. Another layer of matt on an area a foot wide right across the body and onto the cheeks really stiffened it up. Back on to the headliner fabrication tomorrow.
