Protecting thin edges of wings

"I tried a new trick and worked really good. On the trailing edges where the foam is tapered down and gets thin I noticed it's easy to damage from just a light bump so I used some foam safe CA and ran a small bead along the TE top and bottom and wiped it smooth (so it covers about 1/4" of the TE) with a cloth or paper towel then hit it with accelerator. The result is a much stronger edge. Should help with hanger rash and that extra hard grass during landings."
