"We've recently received information from the field that the adhesives in some tapes may adversely affect the Lexan that is used in the rear window of the RV-12. (P/N F-1277A). At this time we are asking builders to refrain from using any sort of tape on that specific window until the problem is better understood. If you need to paint that area of the fuselage, then it is advised to simply remove the window."
