Hi; I used old bike inner tubes to keep things tight....they'll encircle the whole boat. Just about the right pressure in my opinion. You can easily adjust pressure by pulling here and there where needed. I did my whole boat this way....used about 7-8 old inner tubes. Just put 'em on, and go do something else till the T-88 dries.
Try it, results won't vary. Paul Gangemi KR2s....priming Erie, Pa. http://community.webtv.net/paulwasp/paulwaspspad
