Default T34 Mentor Canopy


I've got a canopy for a Top Flite T34 Mentor that has become scuffed during moving from one city to another. Is there any way to get rid of the scuff marks? I'd hate to buy a new one....they cost $75 from Top Flite!

Thanks

If the scuffs aren't too deep a Dremel tool with a
buffing wheel and toothpaste might work.


Good luck

You can also use a "micro-mesh" polishing kit. It's available through hobby retailers and aircraft-supply houses.
