After removing my original windows I can assure you that Plexus is evil
stuff and I would never use it again. I used 3M VHB tape and love it so
far. It has only been one season, but so far so good. It is easy to apply
and hold tenaciously. It's flexible (a very good thing), easy to apply and
ea
Cast Plexiglass may be ordered with a UV coating. You don't get it by
default.

It sounds like you may have old Lexan(polycarbonate) for the fixed ports.
Lexan is stronger (i.e. bullet proof) so often the lens thickness is less than
what would be used for acrylic. Lexan is easier to work with and will flex
better around curved cabin tops. It also does not chip or crac
Heating it helps even more.

Allen, Hi, After several attempts with 295UV, I relented and asked my yard in
Deltaville to re-bed all the port lights.They used Lexan and GE SilPruf SC2003
Silicone Black Sealant. So far, they are holding up well. Fair Winds, Pete

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
fter not using the SikaFlex primer. No leaks after
rebedding with the primer.
