hours. LOL. Bring it on. I'm here in KMFR.

Actually, since I put the EAA sticker on, there is no burn marks
on it; but others near it. I just need a gross of those stickers
and cover the whole dust cover. I'll just change my name to
Edward Allen Anderson (or something similar).

Gary,
I thought of that too.
Anything
but black reflects in the window. Colors to varying degrees
but foil is too much..
Carbon fiber is the stuff. I
have tested it and it will not burn or make a mark.
I am
planning to make some patches for the sides of the dust cover
like the elbows on a sport jacket. I plan to glue them down
with spray adhesive. I just need a good way to finish the
edges so it has a nice clean look.
My dust cover is flat
black so black carbon fiber may by my answer.
Still working
on a solution to make it permanent...
I will post what I
end up doing..

How about using a patch of Zetex in the areas prone to
burning?

I have tried to do the same. I really would
like a better solution though. Sooner or later it is going
to happen again. i just picked up some cloth material that
will not burn. I will post my findings to the group if it
works. Randy Snarr

My second re-covering of the glare shield lasted
about 48 hours without a burn mark. Got distracted
when a TV camera crew walked up with the camera rolling
(my 15 minutes of fame). So, I said, "screw
this". I put an EAA sticker over the burn
marks. It's been there for 9 years. I
try to not park with the sun behind the plane and
try to keep the canopy closed. A bit difficult when
I pull the plane out of the hanger and it's facing north
for taxi.

Everyone has seen the burn marks on
your dust cover over the instrument panel from the
canopy glass caused by the sun when it hits at the
right angle.
Mine was really nice. It was
covered in a sinthetic black leather. Anyway, I
have already recovered it once and tried to be
really careful with it. In short, it has about 20
or so burn marks in it in 2 years.
I am
looking for a black material (or could be painted
black) that will not burn that is thin that two 8"
patches could be made to protect the sides of the
glare shield where the sun is hitting it.
Basically I would use an adhesive to glue down
these patches where the sun hits to stop the burn
holes...
Any ideas?
