NITRATE DOPE
THINNER

NITRATE DOPE
THINNER
The primary purpose of nitrate dope thinner is to prepare model
surfaces for painting. Nitrate functions as a sealant for bare wood
and uncoated covering materials, and applying it to the aircraft will
speed up the drying time of the paint. Nitrocellulose (similar to
celluloid and gun cotton) is mixed with plasticizers and thinners to
make nitrate dope. Plasticizers are required to enhance flexibility
and fracture resistance once the dope has cured. Nitrate dope is
very combustible in both liquid and dry form. T124 is a British-made
nitrate/cellulose thinner that may be used with CL dopes.
BUTYRATE DOPE
THINNER

BUTYRATE
DOPE THINNER
Butyrate thinner is used to reduce the spray viscosity of all
Randolph butyrate products, tautening or non-tautening. It is
typically used in a 1:1 ratio with butyrate dopes. Butyrate dope is
made from cellulose. It will burn even though it is less flammable
than nitrate dope. It also retains the ability to shrink with age.
This shrinkage must be considered in order to avoid damage to
underlying structures over time. Nitrate dope is only used for the
first coats of Ceconite; butyrate is utilized for all subsequent
coats. Clear butyrate is used as a build coat to provide the dope
film thickness and body while remaining flexible. Clear Butyrate
has a transparent tan tint to help you see the product as you
apply it.
RETARDER

RETARDER
Slower evaporation solvent for use in
warm and humid areas. Reduces blush
ANTI-BLUSH
THINNER
ANTI-BLUSH
THINNER
A clear colourless unique blend of
solvents, mixed with lacquers and varnish
to avoid/reduce blushing.
ENAMEL
REDUCER
ENAMEL
REDUCER
Acrylic Enamel Reducer aids in blending and spot panel
repairs. Use standard or acrylic enamel. Produces a dazzling
shine and excellent leveling. The reducer adjusts the
consistency of the paint to make it easier to spray on the
automobile surface. After that, the reducer evaporates,
enabling the paint to set and solidify. The basic aim of
reducers is to make the paint thin enough to spray via a gun
while also providing leveling and adherence. They are
composed of a mixture or blend of several solvents. The mixes
vary according to the circumstances and temperature.
REJUVENATOR

REJUVENATOR
A rejunevator has a custom mix of the same plasticizers used in
Poly-Fiber coatings in the right amounts, along with
penetrating solvents to carry the plasticizers into the old
coating and bring back the original flexibility. One example of
applying rejuvenator is spray on a coat of rejuvenator to soften
the aluminum dope if a fabric work has been interrupted during
the finishing process and the fabric has been exposed to it for a
long period before the topcoats are applied. Then, spray on the
color coats. strength.
In rejuvenating an aircraft fabric,
Rejuvenating dope does not provide a
permanent solution for cracked finishes.
However, the procedure will result in a long-
lasting finish for a few years without
requiring thorough recovery of the aircraft.
Remember, before beginning the renewing
procedure, you must make sure the cloth
beneath the damaged surface is sound.
Rejuvenating should not be tried if the area
in issue exhibits evidence of fabric
deterioration from exposure to the sun, etc.
It's time to recover the airplane if the fabric
has lost its tensile
SPOT PUTTY &
SANDING SURFACER

SPOT PUTTY
Can also be referred to as wood putty.
It is to fill imperfections in our wood
structure such as holes and the unwanted
cracks done by excessive work and force
applied onto our wood structure.
When using spot putty, be certain that any
defects that may cause a loss of structural
strength are not covered up and hidden.
SANDING
SURFACER
This type of substance is used to fill and
cover any surface imperfection in the wood.

over Sherwin-Williams corrosion protective
primers. It is used to fill and cover surface
imperfections to create a smooth surface for
topcoat application.
ACETONE

ACETONE
Acetone is an excellent solvent because it can dissolve polar and
nonpolar compounds, whereas other solvents can only dissolve
one or the other. Acetone can be used on both organic and
inorganic materials. Acetone is a popular solvent used to
produce plastics and other industrial goods. It is commonly used
in the woodworking industry to remove old paint or varnish
remains from hardwood furniture so that a new coat may be
applied smoothly. Acetone is a widely used cleaning solvent. It is
used to clean up after painting and to remove lacquer coatings.
Acrylics or lacquers that have hardened in spray guns or hoses
will be softened.
THANK YOU FOR
LISTENING
