notes to installing:

Attach to the glider with RTV gasket maker silicone. Only a thin layer is required, no more than  1/16". Then tape to the wing and leave for a couple of hours before the tape is removed. Ideally it should be left to fully cure overnight. The flat surface of the skid may also be shaped to the wingtip profile by using a file or gentle use of a sanding drum. If using a sanding drum, care should be taken not to remove too much material."
