Liner Materials

[DaveMartell]

What are popular liner materials you guys have used or use now?

Is there a favored source?

I know these are general most likely popular topics but I couldn't find anything searching. I'm asking because I don't want to use something that's going to de-laminate or come unglued or have any problems actually. I've been using "plastic engraving stock" from Texas Knifemakers and I like the way it works with grinding and buffing but I wonder if it's going to come around to cause me a problem later on down the line.

Any info on this subject I'd be glad to hear.

Thanks,
Dave

While I'm asking about liners, what do you choose for epoxy with the non-black liners? I'm mixing black epoxy dye into T-88 and it looks a bit dull and this has me thinking that I better just go with a clear for the colored (red/white) liners if I use them.

the super thin G10 from AKS rocks. Of all things gorilla glue works awesome if you are gluing it to wood. Check out the glue wars threads for those that have not tried gorilla glue for wood/metal, wood/manmade material bonds. I have had a lot of success with speedbonder 324 for the manmade/metal bond. After the small learning curve the stuff is awesome so far.
