robbo Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I don't know what others use but I would suggest sheets of clear acetate which is available from most computer shops and probably also stationers. Don't know what the price is though as it has been some time since I bought some \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catkom3 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Go to your nearest Supermarket,then the cheese department,look for cheese selection packs,usually five wedges,the clear plastic top's on those are perfect for glazeing cabs,quite soft / flexible,easy to cut,and free,if you like cheese Regards Joe.

catkom3 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Ross, I use this stuff It doesn't "burn" the clear plastic,and it dries clear,so if you do get some in the wrong place,it dissappears when it dry's, Regards Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
