Which one of the Randolph Coatings Nitrate dopes is the best to use, the "Clear Non-Taughtening" type or the "Clear High Solids"..........
Getting back into C/L after a 40 year absence, need some help to get up to speed on what's going on.
Thanks,

Hi Bill,
On the advice of a certain Bob Hunt, I started using Randolph's "tinited non-tautening" Nitrate many years ago. It has plenty of solids, it's light, it's sticky, and it gives you an indication of how much you have applied due to the slightly greenish tint.
That is what I would highly suggest.
Being in rather a minority as to using Notrate for all my substrate, it's kinda weird, but I really really like the ease of use for building up a light base, and the much easier characteristics it has for attaching covering. I have a Werwage Vulcan that has NO filler or peimer on it anywhere, just Nitrate. There is NO grain showing after aboiut 2 years.

Hi Bill!
I'm using Randolph's non-taunting tinted butyrate. Same thing. Very sticky and works quite well.

Thanks very much Mr. Bill, just placed an order with Aircraft Spruce & Specialty for a quart of Non Taughtening & thinner

Man, are my eyes getting bad! I did not have the screen "blown up" to enlarge the text, and I see that I mis-spelled more words than Carter's got little pills! j1
Glad that y'all could decipher it all! x: **)
