Have been using hot glue for all my RPG builds, and not only is it faster, it's also stronger.

Good question. I don't use hot glue, so why not try it out and let us all know.

I for one would like to know myself.

Not much use for metallic paper (haven't built any 1:1 sword props yet) in RPG builds. One of the aircraft builders out there has to have a glue gun and metallic paper.

It has taken two years, but I think I remember the metallic paper I used for the B-17 in silver. It is posterboard I bought from Joanne's (a fabric and crafts store here in the DC area). It must be cut down to 11 x 17. The label on the paper is Two Cool colors, it is silver on one side, gold on the reverse. The UPC code is 071064243160. Printing on a color laser printer seems to make the finished product more glossy.
