Final word on silk and dope?
So I'm just about to place my order for some SIG dope and what to get any last minute input. I've already ordered and received silk from both Dharma and Thai Silks and now need to order the dope. I'm thinking of the following:
1. One quart of Supercoat clear (Butyrate, high shrinkage)
2. One quart of Lite-coat (Butyrate, lower shrinkage)
But I'm not sure if I need to also get some nitrate dope. From what people have said so far it sounds like I can just use butyrate for everything. My only concern is whether the butyrate provides a good surface for further painting (such as with Nelson's paints or latex).
