Adapter which allows the 200p filter to be used with my c90 and the 120-300mm zoom im borrowing. Basically a piece of card that slots into current filter with a hole in the middle

Nope its baader solar film, you can buy it in a sheet like I did or ready made ones for certain scope sizes.

I imagine you could use whatever you used for the ecplipse, the baader film shows the sun in white and sunspots appear black, not sure what colour your glass makes it.

nope not the same thing. Just wondered. It darkens out sun so you can look directly at it to photo full eclipse etc
