One or two things to watch with Spraylat. If it is left on for a long time, (couple of years) and particularly if it's exposed to sunlight or UV, it goes brittle and is a real pain to get off. I am told the best way to remove it if that happens is to add a couple more coats. BTW the windows are not polycarbonate, they're polymethyl methacrylate. Plexiglas or Perspex. The US supplied ones are Polycast I believe. Graham ---

    Subject: Re: Spraylat
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Paul McAllister" <paul.mcallister@qia.net> Hi All, I have just removed the Spraylat from my windows and interestingly enough the most difficult stuff to get off was where I had applied a second coat I used duct tape to pull of the hard bits and the stubborn bits I removed with alcohol, although if I had thought of it I probably would have tried water, it may have worked. From my experiences I would completely remove it each year and re apply. I found the stuff 12 months old came off easily. The mistake I made was to put a second coat over the existing stuff. Cheers, Paul Off to the paint shop next week. > One or two things to watch with Spraylat.

    --> Europa-List message posted by: "William Mills" <combined.merchants@virgin.net> Bob, I did manage to get to Sherburn, but an hour late owing to the sheep problem at Abergavenny. I launched from Upfield Farm Newport. (Bryan, its as far South Wales as you can get!) Nice bacon butty for lunch, good company, (+ two pilots considering building a Europa) and good flight home. Next week looks like Thursday, so I'll pick a venue and confirm later.
