Jim,
Thanks for your response. The temporary forms came in three pieces. They needed to be glued together to actually become forms/spreaders. I only used the white glue on the form construction but none of it actually touches the boat. I did use the glue gun to attach them to the boat so when the time comes to remove them I will only work with removing hot glue.
: I believe Pygmy recommends using a soldering iron or soldering gun to heat
: the hot glue bond to the point that it can be weakened and separated when
: the time comes to remove the forms from your hull. Once the form is pulled
: from the boat, you'll file, scrape or sand the glue remnants out of the
: hull. That's why using white glue may not be in your best interests -- it
: may create a more permanent bond between the forms and the hull than is
: desirable. Best stick to the Pygmy instructions. The hot glue is easy to
: work with a soldering gun. Read forward in your instructions to the point
: where you're advised to remove the forms. Chances are that Pygmy has given
: you some advice on removing the forms.
: Jim
