For what it`s worth, I reckon providing the partial isn`t very very narrow, swiss lace is best ... then again the `skin` might be a bit more hard-wearing/last that bit longer as there would inevitably be more `stress/strain ` on a small-ish sliver of lace when de-bonding etc.... maybe some partial wearers will chip in here ?

p.s. not sure of cost ... e mail John for a price....has to be cheaper than a full-sized topper I guess.
