I'm in the process of covering my wings and getting  ready to put on the finishing tapes.  I'm thinking of using 6  inch wide tape on the leading edge but am concerned this might be hard to work  with because of its width.   Would using two narrower tapes be easier  and produce a better job or is 6 inch tape just as easy to use?

I found the 6 inch tape very easy to use.

  Big savings on Dell XPS Laptops and Desktops!

A 6” tape really looks good on the leading edge. I was taught to tack-glue the tape down along the entire top edge first. You can get it very straight this way using masking tape as a guide. Next, glue it about to the center of the leading edge all the way down the wing. It can be nicely smoothed out this way. Then go back and do the bottom half. A cool day in the shade will keep the glue wet longer.
