Randoph dope/paint

[J5man]

A caution. My Spezio is covered using Randoph dope/cenoite. I used Randoph enamel on the metal last year as I finished the plane. Mistake. Randoph/Stits are now owned by another company and they no longer market enamel, at least no one had any and it wasn't listed on their site either.....A bumer as the color match between Randoph dope/enamel was near perfect

I'm instaling wheel pants and found I didn't have any forest green enamel left. I couldn't find any kind of Randoph paint in forest green. I've had good luck with Polytone over epibond white primer so I found forest green Polytone @ Wicks.

I shot it yesterday and it's WAY off. Almost a blue.

So a caution if you have Randoph enamel on your metal. I suspect you guys know what color cubs are anyway....

One question. Has anyone tried B-dope over Polytone. I still have Randoph forest green dope and used it over epibond on my fron t cockpit cover, worked "ok". I'm tired of paying shipping/hasemat on qt's of %$#$% paint so I'm going to put the dope on the pants. Just wonder if I have to take the polytone off first.....?

I guess I can shoot some dope on the poly overspray on the ladder the pant was siting on and see...

thanks'

Jack
