Thanks for the tip John. Is there an online resource? Our photo shops are pretty basic. I tried to get some cotton gloves for handling lenses and photos there and they had no idea what I was talking about.

Easy to cut with a carbide scriber and tough as old boots. It doesn't discolour with age, and doesn't scratch when cleaning.
