Maybe a stupid question but, aren't you afraid of lack of air flow? I like running a 2 stage filter with an outerwear's but with the 6's n 7's air filter style its tough to get one to sit right.

For those using balloons on shock shafts. Which size. 160Q or 260Q. I know some folks have talked about 260Q but wouldn't the 160Q size be a better choice?

It works perfect. Just one wrap around and done.

260Q - some materials are more durable. I just don't know how to identify what material the ones I have are.

Where are you guys getting the vet wrap from? I checked pet smart and they had something similar but it wasn't the 3m brand. I talked to Monty and the store he gets it from is not on the East coast of the US.

I get the brand name Coflex wrap in the 4" rolls @ Amazon. Really good stuff. I wrap the filter then twist the excess together on the end and cut off the extra. Looks clean and will never unwrap.

Oh well, now I know for next time.....although the MBX-10 will likely be out by the time I go through a bag of 100? LOL
