Title: looking for black heavy duty vynal for CP
Post by: rackoon on December 15, 2005, 06:24:04 pm

Can some one point me in the right direction?

I am looking for some heavy duty black vynal with a slight bit of texture to it. I am useing 1/4 aluminum for my 3 CPs on my cocktail table .

I would just paint them but I heard that most paint wont stick well to aluminum. I thought about using steel but its a pain to cut holes in 1/4 steel.

I saw the Happs vynal but I think it looks cheezzzy.

I know that I have seen it somewhere. I have even seen it with a leather texture to it. The trick is to find out what it is normaly used for, then I will know where to look.

I have even thought about formica, yet I hate cuting that stuff.

I used some as my CPO.

I bought it at Joanne's fabric. You can get it at most fabric and upholstery shops.
