Drafting film allows for rapid, vibrant colour laydown, crisp and fine detail and gives a luminous, photographic quality to your artworks. Drafting film is perfect for doing fine detail and line work, making it ideal for technical drawings and architecture work; a film that you can trust and rely on in your day to day work. Polydraw Film Under the usual and recommended conditions the film doersn't stretch or age in colour, as well as being virtually untearable. This film has a smooth, double-matt texture, and is very compatible with pencil, Indian ink and transfer lettering – you can also correct using a plastic eraser or soft sponge if necessary, without distorting the film. Review: Lives up to expectation - This was recommended by a professional painter/ pencil artist. It definately lives up to expectations. Great film and would recommend Review: Excellent alternative to paper support. - Drafting film is very different to paper in that it is not...paper. It's more like tracing paper although more stable, sturdy and they claim `untearable'. It's also opaque translucent. The main benefit is that you don't need to transfer your sketch of your subject to the support, you can just slip it underneath and use your coloured pencils on top. Your sketch shows through the drafting film and eliminates those nasty outlines. What you immediately notice with working on drafting film is how smooth and how quickly it grabs the coloured pencil pigment. You don't need to work the pencil into the tooth at all. It positively glides on. If that wasn't enough, the pigment pops off the page without much effort at all. But for those that like their layers, drafting film only takes 3 or 4 layers (depending on how light you work) and you have to know what you are putting down before you start. There isn't much room for trial and error. So far I like it though and it allows you to work very quickly indeed. Because of the surface readily accepting the pencil it is very easy to keep the point on your pencil and those sharp points don't snap as soon as you touch it. Your point does wear down normally but the film allows you to keep that sharpener-fresh spike longer. It's translucency also offers intriguing possibilities for the background of drawings. ## Features - VERSATILE - Perfect for a range of projects, combine with other mediums such as tracing paper, tracing paper roll, carbon paper, graphite paper and more. The polyester roll can be used with a drawing pencil, drawing ink, marker and more. - AVAILABLE SIZES including A4, A3, and A2, suitable for drafting paper rolls, pattern cutting, and engineering schematics. Use as stencil, pattern cutting paper, the mylar roll is similar to a tracing pad, that is virtually impossible to tear. - IDEAL to use as a dressmaking tracing paper roll, the sketching paper is perfect for intricate planning.

I Can't find that info in the listing.** A: 50 micron. A micron is defined as 0.001mm, so the listed thickness of 0.05mm is exactly 50 micron. **Q: Do you have to back your artwork with poly draw?** A: You can use whatever colour card you like to enhance your artwork. Use a tiny piece of tape in the corners to hold in place and frame as normal. Artists on YouTube show you how if you search β€˜drafting film background options’ **Q: I am looking for something to be able to do caligraphy on as artwork, which I can also trace through, would this take ink and is it bleedproof?** A: I haven't tried calligraphy on Polydraw myself, but I asked others in our society who have used it (mostly for coloured pencil) and got the following comments:"I have just tried my new polydraw with a graphic pen and a dip pen with Indian ink and it works fine and doesn't bleed. I used to use a safety razor blade to correct mistakes by scratching off the ink.""My wife tried it out for calligraphy... It is bleedproof, but she didn't find it to her taste particularly. She found the drafting film too smooth for calligraphy, and the ink takes a long time to dry, and apparently, it cockles, so you have to take care with it. She ended up using good quality tracing paper for the finished product.""I used it both for ink and acrylics and it worked very well, but it will cockle if you use very wet fluids such as large areas of solid ink or a wash. I would imagine that it would work well for calligraphy."I hope this helps.Another member has emailed me to say she used Rotring ink especially for drafting film. It dries quickly, and she found she could erase mistakes by gently rubbing alcohol with a cotton wool bud or using soapy water. **Q: Is this like tracing paper? I need something a smoother than tracing paper & vellum for my project.** A: It is not like tracing paper but is a type of plastic paper really smooth and interesting to work. I am not sure what project you intend it for but I have used acrylics, coloured pencils, pen and ink effectively on the 'paper'. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lives up to expectation *by J***Y on 18 January 2026* This was recommended by a professional painter/ pencil artist.
