(j) Visually examine the repair as follows:
1) Point a light on the honeycomb cells (at approximately a 60 degree angle from
vertical).
2) Look for light that shows from under the cell walls.
3) If you see light, the adhesive bond is bad.
4) You can repair 5 linear inches (127 mm) of a bad adhesive bond as follows:
a) Use a syringe and a hypodermic needle to apply a small bead of adhesive.
b) Apply the adhesive along the honeycomb cell wall and adjacent to the
fiberglass fabric.
