Default RE: Pacer Canopy glue warning

What has that got to do with it? CARF do not glue in canopies in the Hawk plus this canopy was supported via magnets for over a week! Not the method of gluing in qestion!

All I am reporting is that the glue is not waterproof certainly not the pot of my pacer! Humidity probably is not quite the same as DEW, my Hawk when I brought this back inside looked like it had been in a rain shower, I have spent time in Singapore that's humidity! also lived in Australia and never observed DEW!

If you glued a piece of canopy to fibre glass let it dry and spray it with water after a bit of soaking the glue will turn white! That is why when white wood PVA glue was brought out onto the market it was never water proof then a while later water proof versions became available so you could use on outside construction
