My wife found one at autozone that was a roll with the little holes that adh=
eres to the plexiglas pretty well. It only works on one side (not one side o=
f the aircraft). =20

We just used them across the country and seemed to do the job well enough.

Comes in a box that's probably 2x2x12.  Boxes long gone.=20
