So, I forgot to get a reflective film material on my last order so iam thinking of something I would have around the house that would work quite well.

Hasid, just go to a hardware store and pick up a roll of reflective tape. It's not overly-reflective, either so your tip will have some light.

Additionally, it is great for covering the inside portion of the blade tube that will not be seen by anyone since it is housed in the hilt. I do this every now and then with blades, and put the film ahead of it in the tube.

I'm not sure how much it helps the light reflect, but it certainly doesn't hurt.

Try the waxy backing paper to a sticker...I found it works fairly well.

It might....but I think it may turn your tip brown...unless the wax paper is more of a white color.

you might also consider one of those static proof bags in which computer components sometimes shipped
