Ethan, The information for the DSI NC2400 punch life is: Paper 2,000,000 feet Mylar 50,000 feet So it's 4/1 ratio. So, if you're not punching 9.47 miles of mylar there should not be a problem. I always heard that mylar was harder on the punch but, did not know how long it would take. Other punches could be different. I attached a screenshot of my source.

There is cheap mylar punch tape on ebay.
I bought a few rolls.

Thanks for the tip.
