Ferg:
I used some material call Sign Stripe by the Spraylat people. Spraylat
is the material they put on airplanes in the military boneyard down here.
I put 4 coats at 90 degrees to each other on each surface. This material
came recommended to me by the guys over at Phoenix Composits. As for
bonding in your windscreen I should think that would be the last thing you
want to do. It is much easier to get behind your panel for troubleshooting
with the window out. I have my side windows in but I am leaving the
windscreen out until the engine has been checked out and all the electrics
wrung out.
