A method of applying material to a workpiece around a protuberance, extending from the workpiece, comprises advancing a template toward the workpiece to insert the protuberance into a positioning opening, located in a first portion of the template. The method also comprises removably attaching at least a second portion to the workpiece and separating the first portion of the template from the second portion along an interface while at least the second portion remains attached to the workpiece. The method further comprises applying the material to the workpiece around the protuberance such that the material overlaps a second inner peripheral edge of the second portion of the template, but does not overlap a visual material-placement indicator. The method also comprises detaching the second portion of the template from the workpiece.
