Due to the un-availability of Cineva, i've had to revert back to shooting with Kodak 64T, whilst the grain is now much finer than the first cartridges, there is still the issue with sound stripe not sticking to it as I have found out!
Where then to send my films for sound striping? I heard there was somewhere in Germany that roughs up the edges so that lam stripe will stick.

I have managed to get it to stick using my home striper;
also E v T have had success with my films as well.

Whist EVT do an excellent job, with the 64T they have striped for me {with lam stripe} the ballance track just about hung on and eventually fell off, and I know of others that have also had this problem with the 64T. Did they use lam stripe or paste stripe on your films Simon?
The K40 and Cinevia they striped at the same time as the 64T has not got this problem, and it is stuck so well it is impossible to shift it off the film, not that you would want to, but I tried as a test comparrison. So the problem is not with EVT's striping but exclusive to 64T.
How does home striping compare?

EVT has done several 64T jobs for me (I'm pretty sure it was the laminate stripe), and I havent had any problems as of yet.

Maybe it was something they were able to correct.
