I will check with Phil i got this from him several years ago. My reason for using it was to try and get a really smooth surface without using a lot of primer. George
This is a simple process, George. Attach the sheeting to the airframe. Make sure it is properly fitted and glued in place. When the glue has dried Sand the wood as needed to get a "level" surface- try to eliminate valleys and hills. If you find valleys I'm not sure what to do. If they are shallow, less than 3/32in, you may be able to get them to fill in by wetting the area and letting it dry. Otherwise, get some very light filler- I use some micro balloons mixed into clear water-based varnish. It should be brushable- a few light coats over a small area. If 3-4 coats isn't enough to fill the depression maybe try to pop the sheeting loose in the depressed area and simply push it up. Use some small slivers of wood to keep it in place and re-glue, lightly.
Once you've gotten the surface "level"- no very thin sanded patches, no dips more than <1/32 in., no places with broken joints between the ribs and sheet, and you're done.
Apply the SLC, or any of the low heat coverings. Lay a piece on the bottom(for lapping areas)and iron it down. It works best to push the bubble of covering that inevitably forms ahead of the iron. Keep it smooth with no wrinkles or folds forming. Do the application from the center of the wing or panel working towards the tips and the leading edge and trailing edge.
Once one side is covered and the edge overlap ironed around you can repeat the process of covering the top surface.
Good Luck George.
