I used stratoglass on my enclosure a few years ago. Was very disappointed because when it got cold; I rolled it and it cracked. In my opinion, not worth the extra expense. Eisenglass gets scrathed from the zippers...I cut a swimiing pool noodle into lengths; put a slit in it; and slide it over the zipper before rolling the eisenglass. Works like a charm.

We've used both, the higher end product was worth it. We have had it for 6 years and it looks perfect. Use the Inamar product to maintain them - expensive but well worth while. Only use microfiber cloths!

I don't have any on my boat but I did see this at boat shows in the past and I thought it was a great option for someone who wanted a more rigid material (like a bridge enclosure)
