Hello rod building world,
Lately I've been interested in attempting some closed wraps with white back grounds. I don't want to see any colors bleeding through. What are some good solid white threads used for this purpose...a serial # would be excellent.
Thanks

i just used coats and clarks trilobal white on a black blank with u-40 color lock 2 Color preserver and threadmaster finish...it stayed pure white without the black from the blank coming through

not sure if thats what you mean though

Thats exactly what I meant. I had a spool of old white Guderbrod NCP and it was the whitest I've seen...Haven't been able to purchase it any where?
Thanks though, I'll give it a shot. Any one else?

Gudebrod white reg. & NCP can be found here

Eventually, all things merge, and a river runs through it..

i've used pacific bay's rodsmith Stay True white thread for trim wraps on dark blue blanks. very white stuff, no need for color preserver.

Anything in bulk sizes?

julio, i suggested pac bay's stay true white just as an option, it works great for me but that's the only time i want to use thread and maintain it's color and just as trim wraps. i haven't tried anything else. it may or may not be what you're looking for. check pacific bay's web site, they list vendors and under the stay true thread listing, say it's now available in 3,000 yd spools.

good luck
