Another Future question

I've only done this once (so far), but I simply dipped the canopy in Future, held it up for a few seconds to let the excess drip off, and then placed it on a paper towl to dry. I'm really happy with how the canopy looks, and I did't have any trouble with it forming a blob on the bottom edge.

Dip the canopy then set it upright on a piece of tissue. The tissue will wick away the excess and stop heavy droplets from forming. Cover the canopy with a cup or bowl to prevent dust from collecting on it while it drys.

Yeah, what swanny said.

The boys have it right -
I've dipped heaps of canopies in Future - it works beautifully. Never had any runs. Just hold the canopy (with tweezers) on an angle and let most of the Future drip off, then set it on a tissue. Cover witha bowl and there you go.
If you find specks of dust, just clean the Future off with an ammonia based window cleaner (like Windex) and start again.
It's easy - try it and you'll see. You'll greatly improve the clarity and shine of the canopy - just make sure you let it dry for a day or two.

Wow, thanks for all the information. It all makes sense now, and I can visualize the process better. Can't wait to try it out (probably by next month I'll be ready for the canopy on my Italeri 1/48 S-3 viking).
