I would like to know this as well. I used to tint my plexiglas canopies
on my Hobbie Hawk RC sailplanes. I would heat up water with yellow food
tint and put the canopy in the boiling water for 20 seconds. I'd pull
it out and wollaa it was bright yellow. I'd be to scared to dip my
sailplane canopy in hot water. Too afraid of distortion.

It would be great to be able to do something on the canopy to help
knock out some of the UV's on some of these older gliders. I don't even
know if I can replace my LS-6 canopy with a New UV/tinted canopy.
Sunscreen is cheaper, that's for sure.

Thanks,
Jerz
