Where to buy rice paper?

General Discussion

I live in the middle of nowhere and can’t find rice paper. I was woundering if there are any big box retailers that sell it or what the best place online to buy it from is? Thanks

Green light surf suppli has a product called " logo paper". I think that is what your looking for. You can run it through an inkjet printer. About 5 bucks.

Look for Sumi art paper – arts & crafts suppliers, Hobby Lobby, Michaels …

Buy some calligraphy rice paper from ebay, it’s cheap, it works pretty good, you get plenty of pages, which you will need for screw ups, just print on the shiny side. I’ve been using an extremely light spray of 3M super 77 on regular printer paper, then lay the rice paper onto it and send it through the printer.

Loew Cornell No. P-906 Oriental Rice Paper

Paper will show up if on top of opaque color laminations.
Best on clear laminations under the glass fabric.

Hey Charlie-

Unfortunately we are out of stock on the Logo Paper at the moment.  It is expected back in stock within two weeks.  We have been carrying the paper for close to twenty years. 

If you need anything surfboard building related let us know as we are an experienced online dealer and ship out daily.  We pride ourselves on customer service and quick shipping.

Best of luck.

Brad

To be fair the following surfboard suppliers also carry it. Might as well list everyone. If I missed anyone please add them:

Or you could just go to amazon.com and get 100 sheets of the same damned thing for the price of 5 sheets from anyone else. You just run the risk of running into that synthetic crap found on the web. ;^)

I might have an extra pack or two of 80 sheets in my storage. If you really need some, shoot me an email at dvarde@hawaiiantel.net and make me an offer. I can send it out but you need to pay for shipping.
