Canopy glue is nothing more than ''white'' or ''Elmer's'' glue.
There is - ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE IN THE FORMULATION - only the price!
So you can use White or Elmer's glue instead.
The key is to lightly roughen up the surfaces with sandpaper, so the glue can adhere. It will not adhere to completely shiny surfaces.
This type of glue is used, so that the canopy can later be removed if desired without damaging the plane.
Ok, this is absolutely not true. RC 56 is canopy glue. It is the best for this purpose unless Zap has one. I think RC 56 is made by Pacer. It dries clear and is flexible. Elmers (PVA) dries much too stiff for this purpose. It is similar, but not the same. Now that you know the name, finding it should be easy. And as for the LHS, typical lack of knowledge.
