				| Hi All,
 Does any one know what materials are needed to manufacture a "clear lens" for
 a wing tip Nav light. Cliff Shaw managed it here  http://www.europaowners.org/forums/gallery2.php?g2_itemId=26047 with a great result.
 Would it be a two part resin similar to the epoxy we use?
 Thanks,

 Hi Stece,
