I should have stated that I will be using 00 silkspan.I watched a dave platt video on covering and he explained the dyeing process for the silk. He used clothes pins and hung the silk up until dry, I guess it will shrink some. the name of the video is Back to Basics. I guess I got confused on the Koverall segment. He did say it would be a excellent choice for the ww1 planes.The video shows him actually covering a wing with silk and nitrate dope. Its kinda strange he did not mention the severity of the fumes or talk about any precautions using the stuff. Anxious. to get started , but think I will wait on decent weather , so I can work with it outside.
