I've been using Seaquest vinyl for marine upholstery. I like the way it looks and it's easy to work with.

Any recommendations for other vinyls?

We use Seaquest nearly exclusively in the shop where I work.  I don't think I can recall using anything else.  I will be interested in the other responses.

I wish i could get some of the vinyls you guys use,
mostly I have Nautolex but when I was over there
the vinyls at the school seemed a lot more flexible
and softer.

I like Seabrook for soft/flexible seating vinyl.  For those who want a "tougher" vinyl, I like Nautolex Capitano.  For run-of-the-mill work where the customer is price sensitive or I need it NOW, I use Keyston Bros. (cuz I can drive there and pick up) Cutlass or Navigator vinyl.  It's very much like Seabrook in it's handling/sewing.

Also use the above mentioned + enduratex or ship to shore as it's called. Have been using their stuff for auto for ever. Since starting the marine business used that mostly til I found the others , nautolex , seabrook , etc. Like June said the capitano is tough and very boardy.  Working on some carbon fiber look on a go fast interior yesterday , ship to shore just a soft as the seabrook I took off.
duct tape is like the force . it has a light side , a dark side , and holds the universe together.
