Others will have better advice, but I would suggest leaving just a little extra on the outside edges of the wedge so if there is a gap between the lead and scales you can try to tap the lead and get it to fill the void. I would ask someone more experienced before trying though and risking damaging those scales. Nice job by the way!
Also, update on the firehose project. I may have ONE section completely clean soon. I think detergent is all that is coming out in the water now so I will have to add a little vinegar to the water to help get it out.
