So I'm looking for an alternative to the LJ tape kit for my Reelmagik STP.  The tape kit's just SO expensive!  I tried googling "plastic liner" and "plastic cover" and "hard plastic tape" and "hard plastic liner" but nothing seemed right.  Though maybe something was and I just didn't know it.

There's so many different plastic products lol.  So I'm just wondering if anyone would happen to know the correct terms to search and also the size in "mm" to be able to find it easily.  I don't want to buy something too thick or something that won't work.  Thanks!

P.S. If I find something that works I'll let everyone know of course. :)

Try "Reference Guide Bi-face tape with polyurethane liner."  The tape used in that tutorial is 3M medical tape #1524, and is the only tape recommended by this particular prosthetics company (Medical Art Resources) for its facial and breast prostheses. This might be what LolaJake uses too, but getting a hold of it is tricky; factor2 doesn't sell it any more, apparently.

When I looked it up on the 3M website, it said that it's a double-sided, silicone-treated liner (basically kraft paper) with an aggressive acrylate adhesive,  0.06 mm‎ thick.  Maybe there's a similar product out there that's easier to come by?
