I'm sure you could secure some nice soft flannel cloth at a local fabric store, a yard cut into 10" or 12" square polishing cloths would probably last the lifetime of your aircraft. Run them through a wash and then a dry cycle before use to get them really soft. I restored the windshield on my motorcycle using the MSFP acrylic restoration kit and then finish-polished with Novus #2 with a wool buff followed by Novus #1 using cotton flannel for the final polish... worked like a charm. (Novus products are in the ACS catalog, BTW.) I hope this helps. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
