John,

All the Moab papers I've tested and used flake.  It is the old Brightcube
Eclipse Satine coating.  They are nice papers, but today, when an increasing
number of companies have figured out how to make non-flaking papers
(PremierArt, PermaJet, Innova, maybe Sterling and others), I see little
reason to fight this problem.

The degree of flaking seems to vary depending on the paper sample one gets.
The sample Kayenta I had was the worst I've used.
