    I am building a Cavalier and about to cover the ailerons.

    All of the wood is varnished.

    When covering the wood ailerons, should I glue just the perimeter, then shrink, then glue through fabric to the large ribtop cover strips? Or glue both perimeter and wood rib top strips?

    I assume that varnished surfaces that will be glued should be scuffed. Is there a recommended grit?

    Should any type of sandpaper abrasive be avoided? (ie silicon oxide?)

    Cheers,
    Owen
