I did buy a pack of yellow and orange. I have been using them for finishing. They do work very well. The only thing is they kind of bunch up a little when I use them with a rubber block. No biggy and I'm sure there is a work around for that. I'm going to order the trial sample, that might shed some light on it. But, they are the best papers I've used for finish and I've tried quite a few.

The name works well with the rest of their product family. Buttilex, Fartilasive, and Poopsiton. All names were suggested by the local 5th grade class laughing6-hehe
