Ok I have a small bottle on its way to experiment with. Should be hear by the weekend.
I agree with Zor Nothing beats a properly applied Dope and Fabric job, but you can do some cool things with transparent monokote.

You are so right, every adhesive has a proper place.
In my way of thinking, if a glue can adhere a plastic canopy to wood. It should be capable of joining a plastic canopy to a plastic covering .
I know this may be a little simplistic with all of the different types of plastics. So don’t beat me up to bad with all the technical stuff .
Knowing CA on a canopy will fog the plastic I will say how I have done it and gotten away with it. Stuck so well when the plane hit the ground I had to sand the covering off the plastic. I drew an outline of the canopy onto the plane, used a pin and poked little holes on the inside of the line, put a bead of thick CA on the inside of the line and just set the canopy on top of the glue bead. I didn't get the fog.
Why I would mention that I have no idea except I saw it mentioned. I only did it this way twice on a couple of Up-Roars. Maybe I just got lucky?? If you rough up the covering in the gluing area a little with some sand paper pretty much any glue will stick to the plastic covering. That's how you can get paint to stick to it too.
