graphite and Protec

[Avery Todd]

Wim,

My apologies to you, Jim B., and the list. I didn't use the correct term. 
When I wrote my post,
I had in mind the stick graphite type. But I've still seem many gunked up 
knuckles over the
years where it worked for a while but just got worse with time! Since we 
have it now, I still
much prefer Teflon powder or unscented talc.

Flame suit ordered! Conrad? :-)
