What vinyl are you using now?

Here is the stuff I use for my vinyl cutter. Very easy to work with, doesn't leave glue residue, and it's priced pretty good.

If your cutting your masks by hand, Parma also has some vinyl available.

Hey, does anybody know where I can get and what it's called for the protective film that comes on the outside of the bodies. I have a few shells that don't have any protective film on them. Also is it applied with a heat gun to shrink it to the shell.
thanks

I'm no expert, but if I ever have a body like that (And really it's only been one, for an OLD b2) I just used liquid mask and covered the outside of it.

I use Saran wrap on bodies that don't have clear film on the outside. It might be tempting to buy an off-brand cheaper cling wrap, but I have had the best luck with Saran wrap (it goes on easier and cuts easier).
