    canopy for 1:48 Airfix spitfire

    Hello all.
    HELP I have managed to fog and scratch my canopy for the Airfix AO5125 1:48 MK Vb. Airfix don't have any and I want to know where I can get one if possible.
    Many Thanks

    Andy,
    you might have to bite the bullet & buy these:

      Hi Andrew
      Is it scratched and fogged beyond repair? It’s surprising what polishing can achieve …..
      Welcome to the forum, by the way….

        I am waiting for some of those little polishing pads and compound? plus a bottle of pledge/klear.
        I watch the forums a lot but haven't really posted a lot. But thank you.

          Send me a pic of the canopy in a pm with your postal address and I will send you a vac-form replacement I have in the spares box.
