 on my fiberglass cowling. On the new cowlings, ones being sold now, the

 joggle in the front is low enough to add the tape.



 You can get some from Aircraft Spruce and install it. It will only look

 good immediately after you install it.


	


A far better product that is sold by Spruce is Teflon coated fiberglass 

anti-chafe tape.  Comes in 5 and 10 mil thickness.  I have used to on my 

Bonanza cowl doors and on Grumman cowlings.  It is very slick, thin and 

wears very well, but much more expensive than the chafe seal you mentioned.
