backing paper
Sé qué es un "backing paper", es el papel protector que protege (valga la redundancia) la parte posterior de la cinta adhesiva (de doble contacto, en este caso).
Pero no sé cómo se llama en español. He encontrado varias frases, pero ninguna me convence: papel de apoyo (!), papel de refuerzo, papel posterior (!!)...
¿Será simplemente "papel protector"?
Muchas gracias.
