Question for those of you who use or have used reflective tape in your layered pieces - What kind do you recommend and what/who is the supply source?
Many thanks in advance!

Re: Reflective Tape?
I was reading some older posts yesterday and some of the members had pictures of outdoor signs they had made and said they use a reflective tape between the layers to really make them show up, especially at night. So, I am thinking it must be something that can be bought in a roll or sheet that is a at least 12" - 18" wide?
Been looking around on the net but have not been able to find anything yet...

This is where I buy all of my vinyl for my vinyl cutter.

Check out the different manufacturers... Orcal, FDC, 3M, and Nikkolite have reflective vinyl.
Brace yourself because reflective vinyl is expensive!
You may also be able to find smaller pieces on Ebay by searching for 'reflective vinyl'.
