Removing canopy seam line tutorial and polishing model kit canopies video guide 

Interesting. Which one do you use? Mothers? Is that a brand?

Yes, Mothers is a line of car care products here in the U.S. based out of California, everything from wax to tire shine{no I'm not a salesman for MOTHER's} . The headlight restorer comes as a kit. I accidentally spilled some Lacquer thinner on a canopy for one of my P-47 kits, once I was done cursing at myself I remembered I had just polished the plastic headlights on my car the day before so I figured "What the heck, give it a try". The product worked perfectly, it got rid of the haze AND put a far better shine than dipping in Future. Now every time I have a problem with a canopy, I use "Mothers". Like I stated, a little dab on a cotton bud, some soft swirling, paint, lacquer thinner, SUPER GLUE, all is removed by using the compound. The super glue I did have to rub a little harder on, but it still came off. So now I can see better at night while driving, plus I never have to worry about making mistakes on my canopies again.

We have that in NZ too. I thought the Tamiya compound was expensive until I looked for the Mothers compound, at $65 a bottle its not far off the price of a model kit!

@@steveaustin9386 WOW! You're right that's way to expensive. I do realise the bottle will last a long time, but at that price - it should build a model for ya also.

Hi Mark. Sorry for that inconvenience, I really don't know. I don't work for them and I have not talked with them for some time now. And on most recent message i have sent them few weeks ago they also did not replied.

please email me on scalehangar182@gmail.com about your problem, i had their products in use for over 2 years so maybe i can help somehow.

No. broken and cracked canopies are basicly unrepairable.
