Has anyone tried a window tint on their canopy? I talked with a guy at Auto Sound and they have a product called Hepa Cool or something like that which is optically clear, almost no tint, but blocks 99% of UV and 80% of the HEAT. They have a demo where a 250 watt light shines thru glass and you can feel the heat, it gets very warm on your hand. Then you slide the Hepa Cool tinted glass in front of the lamp, and the heat goes away. I mean there is nothing coming thru! You can see thru it at night since it has almost no tint to it.
I just wondered how well it would stick to plexi and if anyone has had any experience trying this. I would really like to do it if it can be successful. It would make the cockpit MUCH cooler, save avionics, block UV, etc.
The guy at Auto Sound assured me he could do this without scratching the canopy and it would never peel, guaranteed. I don't know what I would do if it did
Any comments from someone who has tried this would be appreciated.
