TINTING A CANOPY

I would like to tint my Pacific Aeroworks Edge canopy a "NASA gold" color. I have used Rit Dye in the past but
never quite got the color or the opacity I was after. I'm trying to paint/tint the canopy at about 50% opacity
that you can see through to the cockpit.

Go to an RC car shop and get the Tamiya smoke paint for the job. Remember to coat the outside of the canopy with something like car wax to keep the spray away from it. Will be a nice job.
