Does anyone know a good source for Self Adhesive Mylar Film in various colors...Im also looking for some GREAT braided rope..like the original Daryl Jumping Knot of Pakistan was made of.... I have 2 of the newer version and the rope just isn't the same..

You might try a craft supply store such as Michaels (sp?). Fabric stores sometimes have braided cord for window drapery and trim.

Dick blick Art supply can give you the mylar.

Thanks for the sources, I will check them out.

For the mylar try:

If you are looking for something that can be photocopied or laser printed on, try a drafting supply place.

Informal term for it is "sticky back." Might actually be a trade name. Anyway, on the site search for "adhesive film"

Depends on what you are trying to do with the mylar film. In my work I occasionally have to stretch an area of mylar over openings, and I use a scotch brand double stick tape applied to the edges of the opening. I am able to reposition the mylar as needed to get the right tautness to the surface. This is usually followed by a retaining ring or plate on the edges to keep things more in place permanently. While I have not used spray adhesives on mylar for pretty flat smooth surfaces, I have used it for solar cooker surfaces with mylar. It will work, but you do not get the ability to reposition much with the pray adhesive, you just have to have about 6 hands to keep things up and tight before allowing the surfaces to contact ach other.
