In Buyer & Seller Feedback, I noticed one diyer who bought vinyl at $8/yd from Dale Ray fabrics vinyl. They gave an eBay ID as drf1120.
Also, if you Google "vinyl fabric," you'll get a plethora of responses. _________________ WTB swivel table hdwr.

what is it you are trying to make with the vinyl? I may have some original westy green vinyl if you only need a small amount. Now if you want to do your headliner in it, that's another story... _________________ Your car may do 0-60 in under 5 seconds, but can it sleep 4 and cook a meal?

that was me who dealt with dale ray. good seller. they said they have all different colors. be advised though, you will not find an EXACT match of either color, thickness or texture. what i found is, by all appearances, the same thing that sewfine is selling, but much cheaper., but that was the black. sewfine might have a differnt green. to be sure you know all options, request samples from sewfine.
you need to call dale ray (704-932-6411) to explain what you need. they will send you a free sample upon request. be sure to specify the sheen you desire. be aware that , as with anything, a flatter sheen hides both texture and flaws in worksmanship. i would recommend the flatter sheen, as i have tried both. |
