In the repair of the cell of the FP404, I have removed numerous parts of wood separating them along the gluing line.
Now I have to paste the new pieces and a doubt arises. How much do I have to worry about the previous glue, penetrated where I'm going to glue the new piece? Clearly I prepare the surface, use abrasive paper etc ... but can I trust that the epoxy will bind sufficiently with that already absorbed by the parts of wood that I have not removed?
