    Tried the overspray clay but it but it was way to slow. 5-10 minutes of work and little to no results. The Maguire's plastic cleaner did the trick. Thanks for your input.

You can get the clay at any body supply shop, The spray should be available at almost any auto parts house. Spray a liberal coat of final inspection on the plastic then rub off the overspray with the clay, as the surface dries out apply more spray to keep the surface wet. Make sure the surface is VERY clean before starting. The only problem you may encounter is if you got etching primer in there it may have etched the plastic.

    Cool product. Have you seen it used on a canopy? Do you know who sells this product, Spruce no longer carries it? Thanks, Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: Professor Fate To: rocket-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 7:45 PM Subject: Re: Rocket-List: canopy overspray Next time use "Spraylat" on the canopy before painting. Spraylat is like a skin, you paint it on the canopy with a brush or spray gun then you peal it off when your ready to go . since it actually sticks to the canopy nothing can get under it.

    Subject: Re: canopy overspray
    I first saw it used on the canopy I bought for a Thorp I built a few years ago. The company I bought it from shipped all their canopy's with spray-lat applied. I have applied it myself on other canopy's I worked with including the one I am working with now. This time I used a brush to put it on not knowing what the results would be, but it worked fine. Check the link below, that's where I bought the last batch. The Rocket canopy takes about two quarts. http://www.wicksaircraft.com/catalog/product_cat.php/subid=2235/index.html Jim Stone <jrstone@insightbb.com> wrote: Cool product.
