i have used the blue stuff and it certainly doesnt bleed or flake but the one thing that is a deal breaker for me is that its so weak. its just polycoated newspaper. every time i ever tried to use the stuff it would tear or i would put a hole in it. its just so damn delicate. the next step up is the white flouro treated paper like the paint check stuff then above that is gold paper. gold paper being polycoated version of the green paper i use. that stuff is great because its poly coated but also strong. just far more expensive and harder to find.
