Tcat, thanks again. I'll be applying Fletch Tite to my P-51 mustang (see pics in gallery) canopy and hoping that it does good on the chrome Monokote. Are you guys that are working with Monokote preparing it in any way? Acetone, window cleaner, pinholes ect... ?

shifi: Epoxy doesn't stick to most types of plastics unless you scuff it, but use whatever you like...after you use the fletch-tite you won't use anything else.
FalconWings10: All I did did to prep the covered surface and canopy was to clean it with alcohol and dry it. No other prep seems to be required.
Tcat1000: If you have the canopy taped in place, how do you get a bead all the way around? That's what I'm having a difficult time understanding. Please enlighten me...again. Last night I tried it on carbon fiber pushrods. Let me put it this way...it works GREAT for canopies!
