Thanks guys,
IÂ’ve gotten one decent pull from the mold, and with a little clean up, it should be usable.
IÂ’ve dipped it in Future Wax to smooth it up a bit and it seems to have done just that.
Its still not as nice as I would like but with a little clean up and paint it should be just fine for me.
I think I will use the canopy mold to create a totally solid piece and let it cure and then remove all the frame structure.
I would then polish it to a mirror like finish and recreate the frame structure and add simulated rivets and then use it as a master and create a vacuum form canopy.
I have tried vacuum forming before and have had success with it.
Again, thanks for all the help.
