Hello folks,
yesterday I pulled the first aluminum leading edge off my wing. Unfortunately the aluminum tore around the nails, so that every single nail is still in place, only sticking out about 2 mm. I'm not able to grab them with stock pliers, is there a secret about the removal of the nails without damaging the spar?
I'd really like to remove the nails and seal the holes with Epoxy before installing the ply leading edges. Hammering them into the spar is no real option for me.
Thanks in advance guys!
