"...Light, wont burn, tough as nails, soap and water washable and unlike real leather it looks like new after 3 years..."
 
But it will melt.  I have several melted spots on my panel dust cover from reflection of the sun when the canopy is open.  LNC2 pilots know not to leave their canopy full open for more than about 30 seconds when the sun is behind the plane, as the canopy acts as a magnifying glass.  I have covered some of the worst burn holes with an EAA sticker, but there are more spots surrounding the area.
