The NGC is ordering new, high quality bands for 2009. NGC has a response to numerous complaints about the paint quality and finish of our present bands. In September 2007, Regina McCarthy visited a producer of very high quality bands in Brazil. She was very impressed with the methods of production and with the owners of the firm. NGC is ordering the 2009 bands from this supplier.
