In the sign shop terminology it's known as transfer tape,
or Application Tape. Common manufacturers are R-Tape, TransferRite, Main tape.

Try this if you have no local sign supply:

Click Appl. Tapes on the left drop-down.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.
Prices are good too.

Would this masking be the same I could use on my brass? Thinking if I tape the brass with the masking tape, laser through the tape, SAND BLAST, cermark, then laser, then remove remaining masking tape that basically was a template for the sand blasting???

See my other post for what I'm trying to do...

Thanks!

No, they sell it at the same places but what you need is a thicker, rubber mask that can withstand the force of the sand hitting the brass. This stuff might work for glass but not brass. Look for Anchor brand sandblast stencil.
