What is that black crinkle paper called?

[jimmiesner]

It's that black crinkle material you put on lights to cut spill. It's moldable like tin foil but much thicker and tougher then tin foil. I need it to cut spill from an opening on a fresnel. I can't find it on line and it's name escapes me.

Black wrap is one of the most fun expendables in our biz.

You can also get it in an adhesive tape form called black tack

Hmmm... Been doing this 20 years and I've never seen that. Learn something new everyday.

Black wrap is indispensable. And a roll will last forever. I bet mine is over a decade old.
