I'm finishing off a Taylorcraft and have misplaced the clear plastic sheets that came with the kit. Any ideas what can be used or what the material is called??

Thanks

Quite common for vacuum forming, and works fine for flat pieces, is PETG. I'm to lazy to look up the mile long actual chemical name. You can do a search on mcmaster.com

PC and PMMA are also transparent options for vacuum forming for this kind of applications. It is true though that PETG is sure the most popular choice.

Bought From .Amazon, 020 petg amazon to re do my Sig Citabria that was converted to a Scout's front window
What's nice about PETG is it design for heat forming, so if you need bends, a low setting on the heat gun will help set the bend so it less likely to want to spring out stressing the glue joint
