ah what would i do w/o google:
It is kind of like cheesecloth, but the weave is tighter and the material is more sheer. It comes in a natural cotton off-white color. It can be easily dyed or spray painted with a pneumatic or hudson sprayer. It can also be stretched over bogus paper and painted similarly to scrim with decent but not wonderful results. Paint bleeds a bit on this material, so getting too detailed just won't happen.

Similar fabrics include cheesecloth, made of cotton, originally used as a wrapping for pressed cheese and now used in bookbinding, as reinforcing in paper where high strength is desired, and for dustcloths and the like; bunting, made of cotton or wool, dyed and used for flags and decorations; scrim, made of cotton and used for curtains; and tobacco cloth, used as shade covering for tobacco plants. The main differences between them are in the finishing (for example, cheesecloth that is bleached and stiffened may be called scrim) and in the quality of the fibre (tobacco cloth is commonly made of low-grade yarns).
