Eastman 8650 8905630 Black opaque 16mm 6mil Acetate 1R-2994 Single Perf/ 1000'
is the stuff you want. You have to buy 2 x 1000 rolls ( a lifetime's supply?) but it's cheap,

I was going to go to the local camera shop and get some black leader for this purpose, but I'm theorizing that most black leader isn't light struck acetate anymore. Will what I buy from them, and they probably sell what most standard suppliers sell now, will that be scratchable? I'm going to get it at Adolph Gassers, specificity for San Francisco folks. Or I could order something else from somewhere else, if anyone could guide me to the correct place to order from. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
