Where can i buy Metallic silver/Chrome adhesive sheets/tape?

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know where i can get this stuff because i've been looking for months now and i can't find it anywhere? It needs to be the real shiny hardwaring stuff. I've seen something like it on DIY programs where they've used it in the kitchen which gives a metallic mirror effect. PLEASE HELP!!!

Not exactly sure what you mean there PCam86. Can you describe what it's for??
I find signmakers to be useful for sourcing all kinds of unusual materials.

well its not actually metal that i'm after. It's just like a decorative metallic/mirrored looking tape or adhesive sheet.

I think the stuff you want is mylar film. It is used for dozens of things and comes in mirrored finishes as well as other coatings.

Try this link for example

If I were looking for mylar film, I'd probably try a model making shop. The kind of place that sells stuff to folks who make radio control aircraft and so on. I think they use mylar or similar films for covering the airframes of them. Of course, I have been known to be wrong on one or two occasions
