    Tara, Years ago I got some adhesive vinyl sheets from a friend who
    worked in a sign shop. This is the material they use on vans, shop
    signs, etc. It cuts beautifully with an exacto knife, lies flat on
    the metal, sticks while blasting, and comes off very easily with no
    residue.  The great thing about this stuff is if you can get a
    friendly relationship going with your local sign shop, they have
    plotters they can use to cut artwork or patterns out for you from a
    computer file right into the vinyl sheet and you just peel and
    stick. They might also be willing to give you the scraps coming out
    of their machine for free, as in between letters there is plenty of
    material for a jeweler's needs. happy blasting Julia Turner
