Grainger has the tape, you'd have to check the msds at the store to see if it contains PVC. I have cut others that were poly based like Arlon but it only comes 15", 24" and 30" (normally use a plotter to cut it).
This one is also poly based:

Just a thought..Tape Technologies makes an engineering grade reflective material for using on street signs and the like. It is polyester based so I think you could cut it with your laser with no problems. It has adhesive applied and comes in various colors.
