A little late I ran out and bought pc7 as soon as i read webbs post and did the job: drained, removed fins around area, sanded coil surface, blew down with compressed air, cleaned surface with 99% alcohol and applied with a popsicle stick, completely covering from front to back with about 1/8", waited about 22hrs and filled seems to be holding fine we'll see after a few crashes
