Allen,

I am curious as to why the windows crazed.   Time in the sun is the typical
reason, but that takes years of exposure.  Chemical exposure is another
cause.  I also clean my windows with Plexus from a spray can.  I installed
the head hatch plexi with 295UV.  So far, so good.  I'm still going to use
Plexus on my next window project.  I have a bunch left in my stash...enough
for at least one more window,

Subject: Stus-List Windows again

The boatyard that replaced my cabin lites used the wrong stuff.  Windows
flexed and began to leak.  I took Septima back and told them to remove the
windows, clean them up and see if they were fit to reuse.  Otherwise I'd get
a new set of cast acrylics.  And this time, use Sikaflex 295 UV as they were
previously instructed but chose to ignore.

Well, they did use Sikaflex 295 UV, but the lites, which look beautiful from
the outside, are crazed when you look through them from the inside.
Question, does anyone know of a solvent that will let us remove the lites so
they can be replaced?
