If it is something that you can paint, try using spray "blackboard" paint. It is the least reflective of any paint that I have found. As you may have discovered, "flat black" paint has quite a lot of shine to it... at least compared to this stuff. In the photography studio business, black velvet is used when you want the least reflective surface possible... but that might look a little toooooooo funky in the glider.

Hi,

I have a couple of 'hot spots' in the anti-reflective coating forward
of the instrument panel on my Ventus. In particular, the outline of
the forward vent shows up quite nicely in my forward view as a
reflection on the canopy. Almost like a gunsight - useful for locking
up on that glider ahead, but frustrating with no ammo! ;-).

Anyone know a good way of toning down the reflections? I have tried
using a black 'Sharpie' pen, but this doesn't seem to have as much
effect - too thin and/or too reflective. Same with black electrical
tape, with the added disadvantage of having to deal with tape residue.

Any help would be appreciated.
