Aluminium foil finishing

Hi,

I am using a 0.1 mm soft aluminium foil and am looking for a finish which will stay adhered even when repeatedly flexed. I am looking for a matte / semi matte finish in white. There are products such as 'Blackwrap' which have a very well adhered finish and are matt but black!
I have looked at printed finishes but the minimum quantities are more than I would ever require.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks,
