Suppliers of Gasket Paper?
All,
So the local auto places supply about 3 thicknesses if I'm lucky. Anyone (Syd or Mel) have a supplier that has many different thicknesses
available?

Just went through the same process. Smallest I could find was .4mm.

Engineering places
Guys,
Thanks for the suggestions, got a Blackwoods in town, some bearing places & some engineering supply places. I'll start door knocking and
see what happens!
lownslo,
I'll bear that in mind, hopefully I can get away from needing to find thinner than .4mm.
