I don't know about Europe, but here in the states I get my sticks from the cosmetics section of my local drug/grocery store. He would be wise to try there.

dimmutal, grit refers to the roughness of the sanding stick or sandpaper. As for sanding sticks the grits are usually classified :coarse, medium, and fine. With sand paper the coarser the grit the lower the number; 50 grit sand paper is very coarse, 1200 grit sandpaper is very fine.

Aside from repairing the canopy, you may be able to order a new one from the manufacturer for very little cost.

Hope this helps.

Grit-n. small, hard particles, refering to sandpaper

Bob thanks alot for your tip.It seems that my english are a little bit rusty.What do you mean by grit or grit polish stick?

Thanks again

hey dimmutal, I've done this myself a time or two, (haven't we all). What works for me is to take the glue down to the surface with a medium grit sanding stick then use the three way sanding stick to polish up the clear surface then a dip in future and right back to normal. You can skip the future if you want it should still look good. Just takes paitience is all. You may have to do the three way more than once to get it just right.
