Default Sourcing lightweight Carbon Fiber mat or fabric

Does anyone know of a source for very light weight carbon fiber mat? Looking on the net and through the forums I can't seem to come up with anything lighter than 1.8oz fabric....really looking for something in the .5 minus range.

Aerospace composite products: acp-sales.com has veil. It is pretty stiff and doesn't conform to complex shapes even though it is so light.

Yes! Carbon tissue is what I'm looking for and they both carry it. Many thanks!
