Fabulous find. Yes, it's a great find. I'm always on the lookout for textured papers, etc . . . like gum wrappers and cigarette box innerds, stuff like that.

Very cool, so thank you for sharing with the community.

Hum . . . here's another idea, I wonder if painted with transparent black if that would not pass as pretty good carbon fiber?

For those looking foil like the kind found in cigarette packs try the cake section at the big craft stores(AC MOORE). They have rolls of it in gold or silver. I guess used to sit cakes on.

I used for the heat shielding on the exhaust pipe and tunnel of this Peugeot rally car. I usually use a spray adhesive on the back to mount it.

While gathering pieces for his '32 roadster build, my buddy Matt saw this pattern in the foil cover of his daughter's single-serve applesauce cups....and he made a very cool firewall out of it.

Like I always say, it pays to shop outside the model aisle.
