Prepped the windscreen for installation. I had previously rough cut the windscreen, but today, I needed to get it ready for install tomorrow. I left the pressure sensitive contact covering for all of the final sanding and fitting. I used the air grinder with the cut-off wheel to do the bulk of the work. I found that by using the side of the cutoff wheel it acts much like a disc sander and works very effectively and gives more control on the fine adjustments. I probably too 20 or more tst fitting on and off session to get it ready. For some reason, the left side (pilot side) has move curvature in it than the right side. I found that I needed to use the .062 alum fingers that I made for the door and rear window install. I drilled the frame for 4 on each side. The right side still requires a hand clamp to get it to sit flush. After getting the edges final cut, i hand sanded them with 60, 100, and 220 grit respectively to get the edges scratch free. I used some 3M fineline tape and masked off a border and then applied 3 coats of peelable protective coating to the exterior side of the windscreen and 2 to the inside (That's all the material I had left!). I marked the perimeter of the windscreen on the last trial fit w/ a Sharpie and then masked the area off w/ masking tape, I'll Scotchbrite the upper fwd fuse in the AM and then prime it w/ 988 and then spray it with some semi flat black paint I picked up @ Ace. I need to remove the center post and get it painted and reinstalled before floxing in the windscreen.
