Amid all of the din re Acetone and plexiglass, I hope that his method
for installing the windows does not become a victim of the hubub. One
need only look among the rows of RV-10's (at) OSH to find evidence of the
cracking in the paint for those who've used Weld On to attach their
windows. If you want to avoid the inevitable cracks I encourage you to
consider 'David's' (Phoenix Composites) process.
(PS I've got 5 containers/kits of Weld-on 10 available to the 1st person
to pay the shipping/handling)

window that is a vieiwing area. All veiwing ares were protected with
signprint.The window flanges were scuffed and cleaned with acetone.
and excess resin (when installing) was cleaned up with a 50/50 mixture
of mineral spirits and acetone. The procedeure I relayed is a
procedure that Phoenix Composities has been using on Glasairs and
lancairs for years with good results..
