Hi Zor.
Vous ett Francais-Canadian? Just wondering.

Shrinking - yes, it does shrink in the sense that it tightens. If you take a 1 cm^2 piece of tissue and spray it, it will no longer measure 1 cm^2. When the sides are affixed to something, the shrinkage results in tightening, like a drum, as mentioned before.
I sprayed with a water-soluble dope called ezDope or something like that. It seems to work okay.
The amount of shrinking was nice. My paper was pretty loose and it tightened right up. There are some small openings where I wrapped around a compound shape and I am not happy about that. Lessons learned, thought.
I am curious to see what happens with the dope overcoat. I will be using a water-soluble dope over tissue which is applied with alcohol-soluble glue to a frame doped with paint-thinner-soluble dope Next time I will just use one kind of dope. I was not happy with the UHU glue (though it did reactivate beautifully with isopropl alcohol).
