Oh but beware!!!!!! The devil is lurking just behind.

Not sure if anyone has come across this product?
I thought I would try it in place of polish for the canopy.
Sounds good on the label, but it going in the trash toot sweet!

Take a look at my Close Up.
See that little bit that looks like cling wrap?
Well, That is the Glass coating. As per label
I dipped in in the solution, soaked up the excess,
and let it dry for more than a couple of hours.
Attaching the kit supplied masks at top I
wanted to reposition it, and guess what?!
Up came the coating................... WTA#?
So my guess is, if I had Painted this,
removing the mask would prob remove the paint!!!?
At $14.00 AU +post I am chucking the bottle.
Don't recommend it at all.

Might post this under tools etc.
At least it didn't etch the clear canopy.

So I did a bit of fine tuning of the raydome fit.
Stuck it on, went okay. Then....................... I been looking for a Period photo
for a lonnnng time, then I spot this. Wouldn't it be nice if things were
to real scale? Look how short the overlap is on the wing top, and the kit???
The underside is nearly the same, but the other way, the actual raydome
under almost reaches the aileron...... not the kit!
