The targa strip on my RV-7A tip up has decided to separate from my canopy due to heat. It was glued on with Sikaflex but not the UV 295 stuff. The Sikaflex didn't adhere to the plexiglass but is strongly stuck to the aluminum. It lasted about 100 hours.
I'm considering screwing the targa strip to the canopy instead of regluing. Are there a you downsides to this?
Also, the plexiglass is screwed into the frame with counter sunk screws. My thought was to drill back through the existing holes and into the targa strip. Any issues with attaching the targa strip over top of the counter sunk holes in the plexiglass?
