Default Red Film? Plastic?

Hi all...where the heck can I find red film or plastic
to go over my flashlight at the last minute?
I just found out I'm not going to have time to go and buy that red
flashlight
before I leave for my trip, so I need to improvise on the fly....

Thanks..
jojo

Jojo..try Advance Auto parts or Autozone or any auto parts palce..they have
a red plastic film that people use to repair taillight lenses...also if you
can find a green military type flashlight, the type that has the light head
at a 90 degree angle, they will have the lenses in a storage area in the
bottom..You may try Wal;-Mart for the flashlight ....good luck!

Red cellophane paper can be used too. That's the paper, gift fruit baskets
are sometimes wrapped with.
