To foil or not to foil...

I have found the metal tape (aluminum I think) used to seal air conditioning and heating ducts (HVAC section of Home Depot) to be excellent. It is adhesive backed and slightly thicker than Bare-Metal foil (makes it stiffer). One roll will last a lifetime.

Thanks...this is good information.
Oh and Obiwan...nice pun!

You could also use heavy-duty kitchen aluminum foil I would assume, get a roll cut of the size you need and attach it.

you can find it anywhere....

the foil covering on milk powders cocoa etc.. tins.
in the uk on the covers of chinese take aways...not a wine drinker?go to
a local pub/restaurant and explain your problem to the cute waitress.
look in hardware shops for alluminium tape

if not you'll be foiled again. sorry couldn't resist.

ps; as an alternative to foil you can use tamiya masking tape.and
if you use the tape it would stick on by itself.

Unfortunately not a wine drinker....anywhere else?

I took this foil from a champagne bottle. You can also find it on bottles of regular wine.


This is the Verlinden set for the Bf 109G-2.
Hope this helps.
