Do you all paint out or tint your canopies?
Thanks!

Paint. Krylon 'Fusion' specifically for plastic, although other Krylon works as well. I sand or etch the inside of the canopy with 120 grit paper for the paint to bite. The scratches dissapear once painted and resultes in a glossy finish when viewed through the clear exterior. Hold it on with canopy glue Super RC Z56. Takes forever to cure, but holds up very well.
