I’ve been using a curved sanding block to take any minor bumps off the riser belly so the grip overlay goes on with easier fitting.

In the form and riser and lams centered up and taped. I use a marker to mark center on edges of all so I can keep stuff where it needs to go.

Make sure the washers aren’t holding the hose up or pinching the pressure strip . That won’t let the limb squeeze down and will leave a fat spot on limb. You may need a squeeze helper to get bolts in form too.

Wipe excess glue down , it stays between plastic wrap pieces and you can break it off instead of grinding .

Your plastic must be tougher than mine, all I can manage to do is poke holes in it and get all sticky.
