P3D Re: Silver Tape

["David W. Kesner" <drdave@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to everyone who has been posting about manufacturers of 
silver mylar tape.

However, my original post concerned not as much the 
manufacturer but the substrate the silver is on. Until just recently it 
was on very thin mylar and was great to work with, sticking to 
anything and conforming all around. The new stuff is on a real thick 
base that is only good for flat surfaces. I do not know if the base 
material (mylar?, sometimes called silver polyesther) is the same 
between these two with one thicker or are they actually two 
different materials.

The stuff I get now from Delta 1 is so thin and conforming that you 
can see the grain of the cardboard mount through the tape!

No matter who you get your tape from, I would still suggest you 
check for thickness before committing to too many rolls.

Thanks for the time,
