Stencil Material for Plotter

Hey guys,
I've been looking for a fair bit now and haven't found a product that works well for me - and that I can get in Canada.
I'm looking for a material I can cut on my Mimaki CG-130SRll that can be used as a reusable stencil. A thin, plastic type material that would be sturdy enough for several hundred uses, but will cut on the plotter.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

don't know about 100 uses but we use a 10mil pvc on our rolands. it only scores the material and then we have to pop out the letters. not the greatest but we don't really have to do it that much. we have one customer who gets their company name and they use it to mark their tools.

Thanks petepaz. I have had similar success with a thin styrene. only thing is the letters tend to crack when punching out. Thanks though! I am hoping there is a product out there made for this - might be wishful thinking though:/
