Import Tips

• Provide evidence of opacification process (e.g

• chemical composition) to confirm it's throughout the mass, not surface etched

• Measure sheet dimensions precisely; must be rectangular blocks, not custom cut, to stay in 7004

• Avoid absorbent/reflecting layers unless documented, as they are allowed but must not constitute 'other working'
