Re: [BKARTS] Colleague in Santa Barbara to fix an embarrassing error

[Silver MayKitten <maykitten1@xxxxxxxxx>]

i would suggest a coat of adhesive with a piece of crinoline or
nylon bobbynet burried in it with a second coat applied before
the first coat dries. After the second coat dries to the touch,
use a third coat to apply the cover.

=====
Pagan, Pagan, what are you finding?
Yours is the road that winds lonely and far,
Strange are the shadows that round you come creeping,
Still through the clouds is the glint of a star!

From the book, Charge of the Goddess
