Question:

What is the clear plastic sheet material used to adhere stickers to in packaging?

In the stores, adhesive scrapbooking embellishments are usually stuck to a clear sheet of plastic in their packaging. What is this material and where can you find it in bulk or large sheets that can be cut down. Someone told me to try acetate (transparencies), but the adhesive stuck permanently to that material and could not be easily removed. Are there different kinds of acetate or is there something different I need to be using? I have a product that needs to be stuck to this material and this product will be sold so it must look professional...so don't tell me to tear the plastic out of my kid's Barbie doll packaging.

Answer:

I think that what you are looking for is called release paper, or release liner. You might also want to look for glassine release paper. Alternatively, some sprays might be available for you to make any or most papers into release film. Wax paper is also commonly used and more readily available, although you will not get that clear professional effect you want. I have added a couple of links for more information.
