Hey all, I'm trying to get this stenciled onto some speaker cabinets (refer to attachment) and I need the right kind of masking film to do it. Basically I'm looking for a roll of masking material that comes with a backing layer, much like stickers, only much larger and longer. You cut out a length of frisket, then lay it over your artwork and trace it with a knife.

I can buy this right now from Ebay as a product called Badger Foto/Frisket, but it's located in the US and extremely costly to mail over. Is there anywhere I can find this on an Australia online store or Melbourne shop?

The badger frisket can be found here: FOTO/FRISKET MASKING FILM AIRBRUSH GRAPHIC PAPER-Gloss - eBay (item 220575270590 end time Apr-19-10 03:25:49 PDT) (http://cgi.ebay.com/FOTO-FRISKET-MASKING-FILM-AIRBRUSH-GRAPHIC-PAPER-Gloss_W0QQitemZ220575270590QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item335b4f86be#ht_2802wt_1165)

You'll be able to find frisket at Eckersley's, they have stores in South Melb and 120 commercial Rd about a block off Chapel St.

Thanks, is this the one that has the backing paper?

Never seen frisket that doesn't have backing paper.

Thanks, I shipped some frisket from the US previously for about 75 AUD total, and it didn't have backing paper, so I just wanted to make extra sure. I'd have almost as much success using cling wrap as unbacked frisket.

I found Frisket at the Melbourne Eckersleys! It was their last one too! Thanks!
