Comments

Quasi-experimental - three 0.07" L6 layers - two 0.25" 8670M layers separated by 1095 (0.25 & 0.125) - outer layers were 0.25 & the white layers separated by 0,125. The idea is to compare the whitness of L6 & 8670M side-by-side. There is a slight but not significant difference. Sold on 4/3/2023 for 0150
