Netters,
I¹m ready to glass in my canopy to the canopy frame. The plan book says
to peel back the protective cover from the edge approximately 1.5 inches.
Then place a band of ³masking² tape or ³electrical² tape 1 inch from the
edge. Which tape do you recommend? Then is says to run two 2 inch BID
tapes around the canopy inside and out. How do you keep the tape from
having a shaggy edge with out sanding into the plastic canopy?
Any thoughts on running a strip of double sided scotch tape around the
canopy frame to hold the canopy in place while applying the 2 inch BID tape?
I¹m sure those that have been through this step will have some very helpful
ideas.
Also looking for a ³night latch² type safety catch that will keep the
canopy from blowing clear open if it ever gets loose.
Hope everyone has a great upcoming three day weekend.
Thank you,
Jim Morehead
