Mate i use alot of vanish and it's worth what you pay for. But a suitable option at a much cheaper price would be some Seaguar fluorocarbon. I use this every now and then and it works well.

I used to use vanish until I was introduced to a "better" leader.
I found the abrasive quality of vanish not as good as this leader that I use now. I now use, and have been for quite a while now, yamatoya rockfish or razor leader at 6lb. Have you tried that Dell? Try it and see what you think compared to vanish.

I've been using the Yamatoyto for a few years now and I'm yet to find better for me. I do believe in you get what you pay for.

I haven't tried Nitlon leader yet. I've stuck with Yamatoyo leaders for a little while now, and can use them even when they're scuffed up. They still hold brilliantly.
I'll be going to use Siglon and Nitlon soon to just use some other leaders around. I know they are well rated just as the Yamatoyo leaders.

Between Vanish and Nitlon there is no comparison. Nitlon rocks!!
Being the only 2 brands of leader I have used with any regularity I cannot speak with any authority on other brands, but I am a HUGE fan of Nitlon and have no qualms handing over the money to buy it as I know the product is great. I did used to buy some small 10 and 20 metre spools of flurocarbon when I was first getting into breaming as the local store was quitting it, but I cannot remember what it was. As for Vanish... I bought a spool of 6lb and 12lb, and after a few tries with it put it on the shelf in the shed. Gaff

Well, I really like the Yamatoyo. But I am testing out Line Systems in 6 and 8lb and I am very impressed so far.
Very abrasive-resistant and ties well. It is also thinner than other leaders I have used.
