Wifey went shopping and came home all elated big smiles etc and announced she had "got me a load of Maderia"
VERY nice me thought now i see why im with her
then i found out it is 40wt RAYON................................
i know its not as strong as polyneon but can i use it for decorative buttwraps (with loads of CP) or has she done it to my wallet again???????????
I know we`ve covered this before but i cant find a definitive answer anywhere ( or is it a case of try and see??)

Heres hoping as i like the feel of it and the ease with which it packs ( plus the colour chart she sort of "Borrowed" from the shop)

Okkkkkkkkkkk cheers billy I`m wondering if the rayon in the uk is different to the states this stuff has a 9oz break strain is smooth doesnt fuzz uptakes epoxy well (no fish eyes) packs easily which doesnt sound like the rayons that you guys are using



AHAAAaaaaaaaaa found it
i think you guys get poly neon or ECONEMY rayon
over here its viscose rayon maybe thats the differnce its apparently a higher tensile strength?????

even more confusing now
