Apr 25, 2021     Canopy dressing and taping. - (2.3 hours)       Category: Canopy
I tried to lift the canopy onto the frame by myself, but that didn't seem like the greatest idea. So I'll wait for help tomorrow. In the meantime I got some smaller jobs started:

1. Did another edge-dressing of the canopy.
2. Peeled back the protective plastic about four inches on the inside and outside of the canopy. Cleaned the plastic.
3. Taped the inside and outside edges with clear packing tape.
4. Cleaned the canopy frame
5. Cut out and replaced numerous rubber spacers on the frame.
6. Masked off the canopy frame with colored electrical tape (blue first layer).
7. Scuffed the forward rollover bar between the tape lines.
