Description
J Perkins Gold Nylon Covering (2.4m x 2.4m), part number 5524846, is a gold nylon sheet covering for model construction. It is suitable for open-structured models and sheeted areas where a strong covering is required. The nylon can be applied to model surfaces and finished with traditional dope.
When shrinking dope is applied, the material will tighten to a taut state and is intended to remain that way throughout the life of the model. Care is needed on lighter structures, as excessive tension may cause deformation. The final tension can be controlled by thinning the dope or using a combination of non-shrinking and shrinking dope during the covering process.
The 2.4m x 2.4m sheet provides material for covering model components, including larger surfaces and shaped areas. Its gold colour gives the finished model a clearly defined appearance, while the nylon construction provides the stated covering material for open structures and sheeted sections.

Specifications
JP Nylon Covering 2.4 sq/m
Nylon is suitable for open structured models and sheeted areas where strength and the very best finish is required. There is little argument that the extra time required to apply nylon is well worth while for the discerning modeller. Nylon will shrink to a very taut state and stay this way for the life of a model. In fact care needs to be taken to ensure that it does not over tighten and cause structural deformation on lighter models. Thinning the dope or using a combination of non shrinking and shrinking dope will alleviate this.

- Colour: Varoius
JP Gold Nylon Covering (2.4m x 2.4m) Key Features:
- Exceptional Structural Strength: Sourced for its superior durability, this premium nylon is the definitive choice for open-structured models and sheeted areas where maximum reinforcement is required.
- Permanent Taut Finish: Unlike inferior materials, this nylon is specialised to shrink to a drum-tight state and remain perfectly tensioned for the entire life of the model, preventing sagging over time.
- Generous Surface Coverage: Supplied in large 2.4 sq/m sections, providing ample material to cover significant wing spans or complex fuselage geometries in a single, seamless application.
- Professional Aesthetic Versatility: Available in a range of colours, this covering provides a high-quality base that is highly receptive to traditional "dope" finishes for a classic, high-performance look.
- Customisable Tension Control: The material's responsive nature allows the discerning modeller to fine-tune the final tautness through the application of shrinking or non-shrinking dopes, ensuring a perfect, distortion-free fit.
