Prepping for the window install

All of the windows were CNC cut from hard coated Acrylic.  The forward windows are 3/8 inch thick for added strength.

Here are the steps that I will follow to install the windows:

1  drill holes in edges of windows
2   drill matching holes in boat
3  mark outer UV paint marks around edges with tape
4  remove windows
5  paint outer edges with black"fusion" plastic paint
6   clean openings with Sika cleaner
7  clean back side of window edges with cleaner
8  prime back side of window edges with Sika primer - 209D
9  apply bead of Sika Flex around opening
10  insert spacers and "o" rings around fasteners
11  fix windows in place
12  tighten fasteners  ( all 300 of them )
13 back fill any voids around edges
14  clean residue with mineral spirits
15  stand back and admire the fitted windows

Where did you find the acrylic material? Is this through a local source or online? Thanks.
