: Try rolling up the tape dry, putting it in a small cup, adding mixed epoxy
: and working it with the fingers to saturate the tape. Wear gloves, of
: course. Then unroll it along the seam. Works best to do each side in two
: phases, from the cockpit to each end.

This is actually at the joining-the-8' panels-together stage. (Where CLC uses scarf joints). I think he wishes he was at the joining hull to deck stage!
