Hey guys I want to put a gloss finish on my sab goblin Havoc canopy and tail ! Any suggestions on a product that I can use that won't crack when putting the canopy on and off of the heli?

Standard acrylic clear lacquer out of a 'rattle can' will do the job. My favorite lacquer is 2K type, it gives a deep liquid gloss finish, but that stuff is very toxic, a special mask is required. Surface prep is the key either way. Use a Scotchbrite pad to scuff up the surface otherwise the lacquer will flake off regardless of what type you use.
