    Thanks Fernando. The process is the same for the WK.

    The reason I primed it first was because it was easier to spray the whole area With the liner out, then just touch up the small section that got messed up with the heat gun. Other than that, it doesn't really matter.

    The cuts are slight triangular shapes so the pinch weld sits flat when folded over. If you just put a few slices they'll overlap each other and stick out further. The only angles that matter are the top and bottom most cuts.... the rest may have a slight angle just to do blade position.

    Gotcha. Cool. I will hopefully get to do it when I have time to work on mine.
