Hi, I have read that some of you guys use embrboidery thread for rod binding, have any of you used Gutermann polyester or metallics. Only asking as I can source these locally and can see the colours before buying. No one around where I live has any range of rod binding threads in stock. I know I will have to use cp. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers Re: Gutermann Thread

G'day Wayne I have used Gutermann thread at times & had no problem with it at all .The only reason that I don't use it now is simply because the store I used stopped carrying it & I now use either Mettler or Maderia .If fact any polyester embroidery thread seems to work .I use the embroidery threads on both guide wraps & dec wraps & again never a problem .The thread is a tick smaller than the normal "A" thread & has a slightly lower breaking strain & I have never had a thread failure yet over around 10 years of using the embroidery thread .Just make sure you don't purchase rayon thread by mistake.
