I have used laytex from rubber gloves, and you can also buy latex material in squares
( approx. 2"x2" ) at some fly shops, and at craft stores. I haven't tried them with
pearlescent mylar, but I am now curious how that might look under a stretched laytex
strip up the back of the scud......

There's a material called "Scud Back", sort of a stretchy plastic strip that would
work. It comes in several widths and colors, including clear. If all else fails, you
can always just cut a strip from a Zip-Lock baggie for the shell back. That works
fine.
