I've never used but I'd be interested in trying it out. Any idea on where to purchase it from?

Thanks

it is a joke!
there is no miracle mylar,
all it is, is JM Brand self stick clear lament found at any office supply store.

but what's true and not a joke, is how it does work just like the video says,
it's great protecting pinball playfields and only comes off easy if you want it too,

i highly recommend it being placed in areas known for wear on all pinball machines

Where did you get it and what brand was it? (can you snap a pic of packaging?)

I was at staples today and could not fine anything like this.

Thanks.

It can't be the same stuff.   His stuff is "mircale" and sells for $10 a sheet.   The Avery stuff doesn't have "mircale" in the name and sells for $5 for 10 sheets - or $0.50 a sheet.    Unless, of course, he's reselling this stuff at a slight mark-up due to the youtube video production costs?

Staples  

Can't quite remember what section it was.. it was near a lot of presentation stuff (file folders, plastic sleeves, page protectors, etc.)

FWIW, I originally bought this to put it on my SoF where the ball drops off the ramp (common wear spot), but it appears that the previous owner has already done it themselves.  It really does work great, and I didn't even notice it was there until I looked closely.

Humm I just got back form staples in Barrie and they do not have that product. It is not even in there catalog. They did have another product but it looked REAL thick and was 16$ for 10 sheets.

How much did you pay for the Avery brand product?
