RE: dope question....
Don't use Aerogloss. Sig, Brodak, and Randolph's are the only dope you should use. Though the first coats could be nitrate as it fills out better. You won't find Randolph's in a hobby shop as it is a full scale product, however it is just like the Sig and Brodak products, but the smallest size will be a quart and a gallon is more typical.
