Default lining for fuselage cradle?

It is worth noting that leaving a glider in a wet cradle (or wing wheel) can cause damage (blistering, discoloration) to gelcoat. Try to avoid long periods of contact with damp surfaces. I use felt on my WingRiggers but prefer marine grade outdoor carpet on wing wheels. Construction adhesive (Liquid Nails etc.) works on the carpet pretty well. For felt, Gorilla Glue is good.
