Description

Guild Materials Clear Non-Shrinking Dope (250ml Tin), part number GLDCEX1050250, is a transparent lacquer for sealing and strengthening porous materials without causing them to warp or shrink. It forms a clear protective film on surfaces including tissue, silk and lightweight wood, making it suitable for model aircraft construction and other delicate structures.

The non-shrinking formulation helps prevent distortion while the coating cures, which is useful when working with tissue-covered model aircraft frames. The dope can also seal porous materials before painting, helping to create a less absorbent surface for subsequent paint layers. Once applied, it provides a clear barrier against moisture and environmental wear while retaining the appearance of the coated material.
