Aitoh Tengushi Washi paper

Has anyone used the "Tengushi Washi" paper made by Aitoh, such as this:
http://www.amazon.com/Aitoh-Origami-Pap ... B003T97L6U
??

I like that it comes in solid colors, but no idea what the weight or anything is and am wondering if I would need to treat it to use it?

scroll down a little and you will see that it is a form of rice paper.

the bottom line with any paper, it seems, is this. unless it's ogami or origamido, any of these thin papers will probably need to be resized by you, the folder, for complex models.

Thanks. I did scroll down, but "rice paper" meant, literally, NOTHING to me. Guess I won't bother with it... I have enough paper I have to size!
