[VAC] Re: Wrap Window Woes
Hi
Just had my road-side wing window replaced at the Airstream factory in
Jackson Center on a '69 Caravel. They reused the aluminum trim and used
plexiglass. I asked the 'work order writer upper' twice to confirm what
they used; he said Plexiglas, nothing special. He said they have just
started making their own replacements (tempered glass replacements no
longer
available). I was disappointed in the choice of material, since I've read
here that Lexan or Acrylic II (?) (polycarbonate) is the better choice for
its resistance to yellowing and breakage. Any comments?
