My canopy seals have cracked so much that part of the front canopy seal was sucked out and ripped off when pulling out of a loop. Where do you find a self sticking seal for the CJ? What other options are there?

Hi Rich

I had exactly the same issue with my seals. I measured the profile dimensions and managed to match it with some off the roll at LAS (UK based aero parts supplier).

You will need to drill out the 50 or so rivets and remove the seal retaining strip and then cut the new one to length and rivet it back etc. I couldn't see another way to do a lasting repair but I had my canopies in pieces to re-paint so that made it easier.

I will post the details of what I have here and part numbers if you cant get it in your location.

Not the same as a proper windlace laced or riveted to the strip, but this is what I used: http://www.mcmaster.com/#8694k87/=bg982z

Depending on your canopy you may need a slightly thinner or thicker version but this looks good and seems to be an appropriately dense rubber. The backing is very sticky. Be sure you have it exactly where you want it the first time.

Sorry I made a mistake, my canopy seal material came from Woolies

Try this link http://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/p-1256-sponge-piping.aspx

They do another seal thats very similar with slightly different dimensions so please check it's right for you....
