CECONITE PROCEDURE MANUAL 101

Randolph nitrate and butyrate dope products are manufactured under PMA and are approved under the Ceconite STC. Follow Ceconite Procedure Manual 101, June 2008 Revision, for a step-by-step guide to covering and finishing your aircraft using Ceconite fabric and nitrate and butyrate dopes.
