WW2 Cellon Ltd., Kingston-on-Thames, has been manufacturing dope ever since flying began in this country, and supplies large quantities to the principal aircraft constructors in this country, and also to the Air Ministry and numerous foreign Governments. Special attention and research has been devoted to the preparation of protective coverings for the interior and exterior of stressed-skin aircraft. These are of two types:—" Cerric " cellulose lacquers, and " Cerrux " synthetic finishes. Both types are made in the necessary matt surface, and in the required Air Ministry colours. Other products include:—" Cerric " cellulose adhesives and jointing compounds; " Cerrux " adhesives and jointing compounds; " Cerrex " temporary protectives; " Cerric " dopeproof tape. Cellon have also patented a process for covering rivets by means of metal strip applied by an anti-corrosive thermo-setting adhesive. This process is being used very largely in the Aircraft Industry.
