Looks like he's got three years on it now. Might be worth contacting him to see how it worked long term.

LOL on the wrapped canopy and pilot. However as strange as it sounds, it may be a much more attractive and affordable alternative to complete refinish. Looking forward to hear more about it and if it is indeed a viable alternative.
