Re: New gaskets - cardboard
I save the backing on a yellow legal tablet for gaskets. The shiny side of cereal boxes, like where it says 'wheaties' always seemed like it wouldn't seal as well as the porous side. The legal cardboard IS a bit thick for some applications, so I like the brown paper bag suggestion..
