So I needed some sign vinyl to use as a mask for another project (hint: you'll see it soon too). So I called up a place next to where I work. It's a sign shop, and they happened to be moving to a new location, I asked if they had any scrap vinyl. They said sure, come on over.
I get there and there's a small roll of vinyl, but it's the vinyl that you make a sign from, not the stuff you stick on the sign.
Once I explain it he goes off to the back and comes back with a big roll of vinyl, the right kind, well, kinda... It's the Scotchlite vinyl, not exactly what I wanted but I'll make it work.
It's got the extra bonus of being retro-reflective. Since I needed a mask that meant that I'd have a "positive" in the vinyl so I might as well take advantage of it.
I got my co-conspirator to film the action. I didn't even need to edit it, she's such a pro/ham.
Enjoy.
