Does it stick to Teflon? If not, you can get sheets of Teflon in a cookware store.
It is intended to line cookie sheets or other pans temporarily. Use it to cover
the goo and pull it tight to mold the goo into a smooth shape (similar to the way
we use plastic sheet to cover and smooth gelcoat on composite kayak repairs.)
