Guild Materials Clear Shrinking Dope (250ml Tin) GLDCEX1000250
An almost colourless rapid drying cellulose dope for tautening, sealing, and protecting fabric, paper, and other coverings.
The traditional and effective finish for model aircraft, our Clear Shrinking Dope is a specialized cellulose lacquer formulated to tauten and seal lightweight coverings. As it dries, this dope shrinks, pulling tissue and fabric tight across the airframe to create a smooth, stiff, and structurally sound surface.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Powerful Tautening Action: Actively shrinks fabric and tissue coverings upon drying, eliminating wrinkles and sags for a drum-tight, aerodynamic finish.
- Sealing and Protection: Provides a durable, almost colourless, weatherproof seal that protects materials like tissue, silk, and paper from moisture and light abrasion.
- Enhances Rigidity: Increases the overall strength and stiffness of the finished structure, critical for the performance of model aircraft and gliders.
- Rapid Drying: Features a fast-drying formula that allows for efficient application of multiple coats.
- Versatile Format Options: Available in a range of sizes and application methods to suit every modeller's needs, from small repairs to large wing coverings.
