KR> canopy covering
>From the KRNet archives (Sid Wood): I had heard and read all manner of horror stories about leaving the coating on too long and how difficult to impossible this task was going to be. Sure enough after a couple hours of tedious picking at the edges I figured there was something to those stories. One sage advised using kerosene, another praised WD-40; I did not relish cleaning up that sort of mess. I called the Spray Lat folks who advised me to remove the coating within one year. Yeah, right, look it's only been 23 years since I got this bubble from RR. The best they could come up with was to put the Plexiglas in a tub of very hot water and dish detergent and hope. I don't have that big of a tub. Not to be deterred, the Spray Lat engineer suggested putting towels on the canopy and soaking these with boiling water. And wished me good luck. One of my Chapter 478 members suggested using a hair dryer to heat up the canopy and the Spray Lat would peal right off. Lo and behold, after a bit of trial and singed fingers, the Spray Lat indeed peeled off in two big sheets to reveal a most pristine bubble canopy. It won't get any better than that, especially thinking of all the Wisconsin bugs and Florida sands that are waiting. Moral of this story: 23-year old Spray Lat will readily release from Plexiglas with application of heat (guess about 200 degrees F). === Oscar Zuniga Air Camper NX41CC San Antonio, TX mailto: taildr...@hotmail.com website at http://www.flysquirrel.net

How about a little heat from a heat gun or hair dryer will that help? --- On Wed, 5/5/10, Steve Glover <n92...@cox.net> wrote: > From: Steve Glover <n92...@cox.net> > Subject: Re: KR> canopy covering > To: "KR Net" <kr...@mylist.net> > Date: Wednesday, May 5, 2010, 12:55 PM > WD-40 works. > Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry > > -Original Message- > From: "Bobby Murty" <hatconversi...@msn.com> > Date: Wed, 5 May 2010 10:29:32 > To: KRnet<kr...@mylist.net> > Subject: Re: KR> canopy covering > > Doesn't work for this application,,Tried it > - Original Message - > From: Michael Swierk<mailto:mswi...@yahoo.com> > > To: KRnet<mailto:kr...@mylist.net> > > Sent: Wednesday, May 05, 2010 10:25 AM > Subject: Re: KR> canopy covering > > > Try Walmart or hardware store for "GOO GONE Extreme > Remover".
