I've managed to wreck my Ultra bandit canopy by using CA as the instructions said. The problem is that the ZAP makes the normally flexible canopy very brittle. I have done tests with CA and kicker and just CA on its own and the results are the same, the canopy just snaps instead of bending. I have used that white canopy glue and it really does stick very well but it's a nightmare to work with and does not wipe off well.
So a question for those of you with perfect canopy’s, what glue do you use and how do you do it?!!
Thanks

Jase,
I normally use a contact adhesive - Thixofix is good and I've used Zap a Dap a Goo with good results. Only problem is that (even though they claim you can re-position components before final pressure is applied) you really need to get it right first time to avoid any 'stringy' bits. Another downside with this is that any excess is not easy to get off...but once the parts are stuck, they're stuck!
Cheers,
Dick
