I have a 5 piece enclosure around my center console, and have stratglass curtains. Noticed this weekend that on has a crack about three inches that is starting to run. It is on the gull wing curtains on the side so it won't be used or seen except during fishing time, but I want to keep it from getting worse. Any ideas??

I know nothing about strataglass at all, so pity the stupidity, but
Maybe cut out a circular area about 4 inches to keep it from continually running? Then repair with 100mph tape or something similar?? Better solutions

I happen to have my old enclosure from my convertible which I replaced last winter because the zippers are bad. There are several large pieces of strataglass in good shape, you are welcome to any of them. If you are interested measure how big of a piece you need and I will see if I can cut you an oversize piece so you can have it sewn in. e-mail me directly

Location: Port Charlotte Fl		I would contack the shop who made it if you had it done or the dealor. did it happen to be cold when you used it last ( dumb question right?) but ive noticed that with the cold cutting strataglass ive seen this happen. perhaps you had them made when it was cold and the crack occured when they were built and has now spread?
