Fabric Land or look in the Yellow Pages
they have places that actually deal iwth vynil which is better because you will get more variety and they will carry the foam aswell (remember it has to be super thin)

The place I buy my stuff is in Oshawa. The vinyl I'm using for my system is marine quality and cost's $23 a sq yard just to let you know. Regular vinyl should be cheaper though.

Buy 3M spray adhesive from CanTire, or the extra strength elmers spray adhesive, and follow directions.

I bought black Vinyl from Fabric Land, it was pretty good, not as thick or stretchy as some other stuff I bought from Cockpit Car Audio, but worked well, I covered my trunk with it.





...and did my box in it too.

I used the more durable and stretchy stuff for my kicks

One of my mom's clients is a fabric store. They have all sorts of **** and lots of vinyl. It's on Dufferin, right near Yorkdale. I can't remember the name of it. It's a brown brick building I think. Anyways, go there and I'm sure you'll get a good deal. Tell them you're a freind of Sophie's son.

thansk i picked it up...in white ,and some krylon adhesive spray...works alright....but i am having problems tuckking down the edges, over some light cloth........so i decided to use lots of spray on the vinyl, and put some books as weight on it, until the morning, and then cut off the excess edges......

does that sound okay for a first attempt...........

does anyone have a better method.......i don't think i need a blowdryer, since it doesn't stretch too much, and i'm vinyling a small flat section.........

'Rapid Remover' will take care of that sticky glue residue.
