I was checking out video 6a or 6b I believe on this site:
http://www.scaleworkshop.com/workshop.htm
(by the way, I would highly recommend it)

and he is showing some self adhesive masking sheets for painting camouflage on aircraft. Does anyone know where I could buy some of these from?
Thanks.

Hey lon,
What he used was Black Magic Mask. It is pre-cut to shape, and you just pick and stick. You can get it from Cutting Edge. Do a google.com search on Black Magic Mask.

Another good product to use is Glad's Press-N-Seal. it works just as great. It can be found in just about every grocery store. Just cut the shape you need, then press it on. Works like a charm.

Parafilm is also great for that purpose--it's intended use is to seal over laboratory vessels, like test tubes and flasks and such...also great for masking, essentially the same as "frisket film" but smaller. I do believe Micro-Mark carries it, or any laboratory supply website.
