Title: Marine Grade Distressed Leather Look Vinyl **PLEASE HELP**
Post by: hdflame on November 20, 2011, 08:38:23 am
I am looking for a supplier of a marine vinyl that has a disstressed leather look.  If you've ever seen the bomber jackets that have the distressed look, that's what I'm looking for.

Here's a sample of something similar to what I'm talking about.

I thought I had a sample book with it in it, but I can't find it now.  If anyone knows of a supplier with this, Please let me know.

It isn't cheap, but Ultrafabrics makes one.

Not bad specs for outdoor use.  Pretty sure Miami Corp. sells it.

Thanks June.  That may be where I saw it But I don't remember it being that expensive.  For what I'm making, I can't get enough mark up to be able to use it.

You don't by chance have a source for SS hog rings do you?

No source for hog rings.  It's not as nice looking, but Morbern Baypoint II has a somewhat mottled/distressed look.  Not nearly as many colors, though.

Thanks June.  The material is not quite what I'm looking for.
