Thai Silk!? that's what i'm looking for! I'll google it, but have you got a link?

I've noticed that spruce is getting a bit hard to find... I know midwest quit carrying 48" lengths of 1/4" spruce.

BTW, here's how I remember how to cover with silk...

1) sand the airframe
2) 1 coat clear dope
3) sand some more
4) another coat of clear
5) sand some more
6) cut the silk to size + 1"
7) put the silk in a tub of water, ring out excess water.
8) lay out the silk over the airframe, after squeezing the excess water out. Should be very damp, but not dripping.
9) brush some dope on the silk only over the framework, not open framed areas. use your fingers to make sure it penetrates through.
10)Let dry.
11) another coat of clear over all the silk, including open areas, either brushed or sprayed. let dry
12) another coat of clear (very light sanding to knock off any 'fuzz')
13) first coat of color
14)second coat of color
15) lay out trim with masking tape, spray edges of tape with base color (1 coat)
16) spray trim
17) spray final clear coat.

sound about right?
