| I bought the kit open so I'm not positive if it's the tissue that came with it but I'm pretty sure. It did cover well, I've had success putting the tissue on wet. Brian thanks for the kind words. The kit is a neat kit. |

| What did you use as an adhesive for the tissue? Clear dope? |

| I used Elmer's white glue for this model. I use Eze Dope at times but usually save it for primer coats. |

| Thanks, ed. Was the glue thinned with water and applied to the balsa or just soaked through the wet tissue. I've never used the glue before but it looks like the results are every bit as good as the dope and without the odor. Looking forward to seeing the final finish. |

| Yes. thin it with water apply to balsa and use it on wet tissue to smooth out the ends.
