Pac bay or pro wrap. seems ok. actually my last purchased NCP royal Blue , Gudebrod sucked. Needed 3 coats to cover the fuzz up. put the first coat on and instant fuzz. Had this addressed here and others had quality control issues with materials used in the final days. Never any problems ever till that spool. I have thread 40 yrs. old and still use w/o issues.
