Default turbo heat blankets

Do they all have fiberglass looking stuff that goes everywhere in the air when you touch them?

My comp turbo ones don't come apart and are super sturdy but will see after a few heat cycles. I don't think the dei ti lr tech ones don't but could be wrong

I use the same PTP large T4 blanket not cheap but well made will not degrade like the cheap blankets.

I have used basically every blanket on the market and they all degrade eventually. My setup was considerably hotter than most though, so that might have something to do with it.

Fiberglass shouldn't be going everywhere, it should be contained within the covering of the blanket both on the outside and inside. Otherwise it may be defective.

As you mentioned, you probably exceeded the blankets thermal limit. I'm using that shitty ebay brown "T6" blanket (that barely fits the T4) and haven't had any issues with it for over 2 years now.
