Thats what I have I believe I actually used 'Velveteen'
which is a synthetic version. I applied it with double
sided tape on all of the flats of the glare sheild.
It has worked great and give virtually no reflection.
In fact when I first put it on I could not believe
the difference in glare reduction. It has faded a little
over the years and now is closer to purple than black
but still working.

And an added benefit is that I get every good looking
line girl, glider pilot wife and women in general come
up and 'Rub' on my glare sheild and say 'Oooooohh thats
sexy'! My takeoff's have taken a a nose dive since
then :')
