Capacitor question - molded paper vs Molded Mica
#1

A friend, much smarter than I insists this is a molded paper capacitor and must be changed in my quest to re-cap a 46-1213. I think not, rather a molded mica and it should be ok, emphasize should. Who is correct.

Second question: As a kid I was always told that if a schematic listed a capacitor in MMF it was probably a mica. Thus a.0006 mf would be paper and the same value 600 mmf would probably be mica. Not anywhere near true?
