I used weights when I glued the ply to one side of my fuselage, however I found the weights need to be very close together (almost continuous along every joint) else I finished up with places where the ply wasn't glued to the frame. After all the effort of fixing that, I figured the work of repairing the pinholes from a million staples couldn't be worse so I used staples (can't remember what size) for the rest. Staples gave me a much better result.
