Sadly, my time and interest level waned on this project...I may pick it back up with another kit someday, as it is very interesting concept...but I am going to chicken out and just order the sparkle wrap. :D Thanks for all the suggestions, warnings, and tips from you guys!

Yep, in the end I bought a Ludwig Club Date kit with original silver sparkle wrap - issue settled! :)
It is an interesting quest though. Bart's way is primo, or if you could find the right plastic sheeting with the proper rigidity, I'm certain my initial method would work. And I think we learned that you really need 40 grit if using glass glitter, or even 30.
Pics when you get the wrap installed please....
