Alternate Graphite Veil

[Brett Buck]

Frank (or whoever knows) - where did you get the graphite veil in the big roll?  I have used it on several small projects and it is *far better* than the former ACP type as far as compound corners, etc, goes and seems to have very minimal sizing/pinholes?

The carbon veil is the best I've ever used.  At 5gm per m**2, that is actually less than 0.20 oz per yd**2. 

I ordered it through Alibaba.  The minimum order was a 200 meter roll.  I communicated through the "chat" option on the website.  I paid through the international PayPal.  The shipping and import duties were paid up front.  The total was less than $800.

   Thanks!  Unfortunately, if I order from them directly I am probably going to be explaining at in a security office somewhere. But there are workarounds.

Retirement does free you up from HR/DOD, my wife though was very skeptical of sending the CCP my VISA numbers.   It really worked quite well though, the chat connection was with "Lucy Lui", who did all the interface with the company.  I tried again for 1/2 oz glass, but they wanted a minimum order of enough to go from here to the moon.  If you aren't successful, I could try to reestablish contact with Lucy to help facilitate an order.

I have purchased veil and rfq'd many other items using Alibaba.  Some of the vendors will offer sample size orders upon request.  Worth asking at least.

   Agreed, functionally far superior to even the "good" ACP type.

  I was getting it from ACP 6 feet at a time, width was about 3 feet. That was plenty good enough for one regular stunt airplane with some leftovers.

If one roll will do about 100 planes maybe he could cut you in?

He did.   A number of us got some from Frank.
