Background question...

I know there's a background material out there that is less wrinkly than cloth and moisture resistant, yet more durable than a paper sweep. From the descriptions I've seen, it sounds kind of like a finer version of Tyvek.

For the life of me, I can't think of what it's called.

Is anybody here able to give me a clue??

Thanks,

 

No, it's not muslin.
This is some sort of synthetic fabric.

I'm going to keep looking. Dang, out of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. :Curved:

 

Nope. This stuff has a trade-name rather than a generic description. It's a synthetic material.

It's not muslin, it's not canvas, it's not treated versions of either one.

This isn't a test, I'm honestly looking for the name and a source.

 

I know it's not mylar. I've looked all over Backdrop Outlet and Denny Mfg. and I'm not finding anything with the "tencel" in it.

I wish I had made a note of it the first time I saw something about it. I remember thinking how it would be handy for photographing animals since it was waterproof and wouldn't stain if they had an "accident" while you were shooting.

It comes on rolls like paper sweeps, but I haven't found anything in all the variations of search terms I have tried. Arrrghhhh!!!
