I have a small fiberglass crack between the windscreen and the cowling....its exactly centered and about 6 inches below the bottom of the wind screen.
You can't see the crack in the attached picture, but I put an arrow to show where it is (you seriously can't see it in the pic).
Its about 4 inches long, hairline, and allows the fiberglass on the back side of the crack (closest to the windscreen) to stick up about 3/32 of an inch.
Its been that way since I bought the airplane....and it is not getting worse.
My A/P suggested that I get a hypodermic needle and inject some lock tite (or other) adhesive under it to bind it back down.
My question is, what adhesive to use ? It has to basically be instantly bonded because I don't have a way to hold it down while it bonds.
And I don't want it to generate heat and melt the surrounding material.
Ideas ?
