Metallic sheet thinner than aluminum foil?

Hi,



I'm using aluminum foil to act as a spacer between two heated pieces of glass to allow a layer of wax to pass through the space. However, standard aluminum foil has proven to be too thick -- is there a product I could purchase that would fit the bill -- a thinner sheet of a metal that is not combustable at temps of about 250 degrees?



Thanks,


- jim

Thin aluminum foil, obviously!

The only supplier I know anything about is Goodfellow. But they're rather pricey for small samples.

Gold leaf is probably the thinnest metal foil readily available.

Chocolate wrapper ? Peel the paper off the back first.
