I am about to begin final assembly on the rudder, and that means the infamous trailing edge wedge / riveting / gluing procedure.
I am going to go ahead and get an order to Vans for some Proseal, but wasn't sure about the quantity I need to order.

It looks like the 3.5 ounce kit is enough to do the trailing edge, but I'm wondering if that will leave me with enough left to dab a little of it on the end of the stiffeners as well?
I am also looking at buying the Sealant Gun than Vans sells to make this messy job a little easier:

Do any of you have any experience with this thing? It looks like a mini caulk gun. Is it worth it?
Thanks!
