Default RE: Canopy glue

Tom, thanks for making me aware of the heat issue. It does make sense. This is one lesson I won;t learn the hard way.

Carl, if the canopy glue doesn't clear up to you liking you can use automotive pin striping tape along the edges to cover up the visible glue residue. This also helps to dress the plane up a little and looks much better than seeing the glue show through. From what I can tell , even when it clears after curing you can still see it if you don't have a painted trim line on your canopy.
