If you are using Oracover (Ultracote with a different name), wouldn't it be easier to get the matching paint and paint them ? Ultracote now has matching paint in spray cans that work 1,000% better than the Lusterkote paints.

I used Oratex to cover my ABS canopy. And it works great aslong as the temp is not to high.
Some gasbubbles are easy to remove by making a small cut in the bubble.
