The fuel line connections to the wi ng tanks are right above the cockpit doors. Over time these fuel line conne ctions have deteriorated and allowed gasoline to leak and stain the outside surface of the Polycarbonate material (Macrolon). I have researched how to remove this stain (cloudy surface) but have little results from my search. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what have you done to successfull y remove the stain (cloudy surface) from the Polycarbonate (Macrolon) mater ial? Hugh G.
