Mixed the proseal to apply to the trailing edge wedge

This stuff is supposed to hold everything in place while the trailing edge of the rudder is being riveted (I guess). I've heard horror stories about this stuff, and ya' know what.....? Their right! It's hard to describe the consistency of this goo. Somewhere between snot and hot mozzarella cheese. The instructions say to put a thin line of it on the outside of the wedge and place it between the skins, then cleco everything down to a piece of aluminun angle. The instructions don't say whether the ($30) angled aluminum should go up or down. I opted for down, so I could have free access to wipe off any excess goo that oozed out on the aft edge.
