metal flake vinyl

does any one know a good place to get some metal flake vinyl i was thinking of doing my door panels in it but cant find a place that sells it big enough

 

macks hardware sioux falls s.d. has it on hand gray, silver, and red. its called zodiac, google and you'll find wholesale and retailers of it.

 

Post up some pics if you do it. I am interested in how it will turn out because I thought about doing it on a past project but never did.

 

http://www.diyupholsterysupply.com/Zodiac-Naugahyde.html HERE! In less than 30 seconds from reading this post I found 1 seller on GOGGLE with prices. Do you know how to surf the 'net?

 

Got mine at "Joanne Fabrics".. They have about 3 different colors...

 

joann fabrics does not carry zodiac any more... dunno why, but a club brother was looking for zodiac there and came up empty

 

Or to search the HAMB......

second on the zodiac, just google it, i found them a few years ago, they carry a bunch of it in different prices.

 

There was a post on here last week in the classifieds where someone had two rolls of it among a bunch of other misc parts... CHEAP. I don't even need it and thought about buying it!

 

I bought some a few years ago off of a guy on the net and now I can't find the site to save my soul... I will keep looking and post here if i can find it.

 

Found it! Got some from these guys and it was pretty good stuff.. Price was right too, I thought. http://www.yourautotrim.com/zoglvi.html

My local vender dropped the Zodiac line and now carries Polaris. Same stuff, different name.

 

I just loved the look of this stuff. Saw it in a model A about 40 years ago. A short time ago I found a partial roll of red at a garage sale and got it. It must have been some old stuff 'cause it was like trying to sew up elephant skin. Just about brought the sewing machine off the table. Didn't want to take a fold very well either. Sorry to butt in but this just shook my memory.

 

I'm waiting on some Zodiac burgandy metal flake, as I write this. Might get here before the weekend. I got it from DIY Upholstery Supply. Great price, too.

Pics coming soon!

 

Zodiac is not marine grade, but it has been used in boats. It is not UV and mildew friendly.

 

I had a '58 Chevy 4 door in HS that had the complete interior done in blue and white metalflake; seats, doors and headliner. The interior looked better than the exterior...
