For those exploring Oratex techniques, here is a link to a thread discussing rib lacing with waxed and non-waxed threads.

Re: Oratex Fabric Covering Revisited
Has anyone ordered the Grade 2 Oratex 6000 fabric? I ask because I just got a quote for some more fabric and the 6000 is now $174.95/yd up from $153.75/yd when I bought some last August. It is supposed to just have minor imperfections which you could probably work around ( if you could even see them). The Grade 2 is 38% cheaper or about $108.50/yd. Out of curiosity I also asked about the degreaser. $16.95/500ml. Not bad but the Hazmat fee of $500 is a bit of a turnoff!!. Guess I'll stick with denatured alcohol or acetone. Thanks in advance.
