Well done and, by demonstrating your procedure and results, you cannot help but come up with ways to improve your finished product. Kudos to you.
But one question, if you don't mind.
Why did you not use staples to complete and reinforce the edges? Time, and Mother Nature will attack the adhesive, starting at points most prone to oxidize - the edges. Once the edge starts to curl, or lift, the problems will increase, from there. My guess is the staples would be easy to use and greatly increase the durability of your repair. But that is just me.
At any rate, I, too, am going to give this a try, and see if I can find staples. Thanks for the tips and good luck with your future efforts.
