The traditional and effective finish for model aircraft, our Clear Shrinking Dope is a specialised 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.
