Most people would assume you're referring to our mesh and film and although you're a valued customer I can't see that you've ever purchased either. In my experience our standard bagging film will not be punctured by our standard infusion mesh in normal use. I never say never but we've done a lot of infusions ourselves with this combination. Kind regards, Matt Hi Matt Your right, the mesh I use is a kind of green color and quite thin and it is not your product. My advice was not intended to be product specific but generic. If your mesh is softer that is good to know and I am sorry if your customers get the wrong idea. I was not referring to your product. But leaking bags are madding, so trying everything possible to eliminate the leaks is what is important, so I advised on every trick in the book that I could find to try and help. ( From my personal experience.) I have now tried a new product I wonder if you have heard of it. It is an infusion mesh/ release film combined in one. It is from Europe and is a blue color. It is extremely comformable and drapable. It is quite soft and does not puncture my bags. (I could get the name if you like) Fred
