Forgive my ignorance Elkbreath but what is contact paper and where do you get it? Is it waterproof?

Check with a local sign maker.They use materials like vinyl,plastic,etc, to make signs.I bought a piece of the same material that wraps are made out of from a local sign shop.A piece 2 ft. wide by 3 ft. long cost me $5.It comes in rolls and several different colors are available.Take a purchased wrap with you to show them what you are talking about.

Elbow, If you can save $18.00 you can get 8 dozen arrow wraps of solid colors your choice from onestringer.com and I ain't saying it if it ain't true...They are a sponcer here and you can get them any size up to 10 inch's and If you are like me I bought the 10 inch and put them in a paper cutter so I would have some little ones for my baby girl...Check them out and they are packaged and shipped for that price...God Bless, Keefers <")))><

I get scraps from a sign maker for free. I wrapped a dozen this afternoon. Of course you have to cut them up, but hey, you can't beat the price. The sign stuff is stickier than regular contact paper.

shelving contact paper in white, made some last friday. A roll will last a long long time, don't recall the cost. I'm cheap.

Just go to Onestringer and save yourself the work and the effort.

I picked up enough vinyl in various colors from teh local sign shops to last a lifetime....all for the asking. Easy to cut and apply. and they are tough. They still come off easy enough too with a little heat.
