Notice that your using an insert for your lipslot. Wondering what kind of material you use to protect the lipslot during epoxying.

those are home depot gifts cards, there's no value on them and fit perfect, i get them all the time. we have cases and cases of them. the only thing is those plugs above were pretty much ruined when i applied the devcon, i left the the gifts cards in the slots, what a pain in the arse to take them out. it chipped all the paint near the lip slot, because i had to take them out with a dremel... lesson learned. like tagger said just make sure you pull them before the epoxy sets up.
