fake christmas snow for filter material
 
Hey I was just wondering if you could use that fake snow for in filters. I think they call it buffalo snow and the package says 100% polyester. It will be super cheap after xmas.

I wouldn't try it myself. I think you may find it's bleached.

When I used to use filter material I used quilting material from the fabric store.

Never had a problem with it either.

If it's 100% polyester I can't see why it would be bleached but to be on the safe side you could find the manufacturer and see if they have a web site or email so you could ask. I've used quilting from WalMart and never had an issue with it, a little goes a long way.
