On Traditional covering with tissue there is often a risk of damage by handling

By covering with Mylar first, not only is surface strength much improved, but constructional strength and rigidity is dramatically better….

Colour is added by overcovering with tissue for colouring and trim….

Not only stronger but as only 1 coat of dope needed is actually quicker and lighter than traditional tissue and Dope coverings…

We Have 1ft (300mm) wide at £1.50 p.metre and 2ft (600mm) wide at £2.50 p.metre off the roll….
