Thread: Fuzzy Gray Matter

    Wink Fuzzy Gray Matter

    The inside of all of our closets, drawers and shelves are covered with this stuff.

    As we alter, repair and replace things we would like to keep things uniform.

    Ive tried Michales Crafts, Jo-ann fabrics an upolstry shop an Auto Detail Shop and found nothing.

    Any ideas, some web sites would be good

    Call any boat supply co., its called hull liner. Usually found in the v-berth area to hide the irregularity in the hull.

    Joe,

    When we had our first coach, a Bluebird, we had to replace the closet lining. Bob went to a local business that supplies auto upholstery fabrics and bought a roll of trunk liner. It was very inexpensive. I would suggest calling your local suppliers to see what they carry and then take a sample with you for color, nap, etc.

    Here are also two sites I found that may carry what you are looking for, good luck!

    OOPS, sorry! When I copied and pasted the links for you from my email program I left my sig line attached--please ignore the two websites included in that as they would only have horse or dog fur, not suitable for coach lining

    I have been looking for the bluish-grey with dots of black material for a long time. It is what lines the luggage compartments in most every coach.

    I got some from Warshawsky a while back and paid thru the nose. Haven't seen it anywhere since.

    Thank you all for the responses. The first 2 upolsterers were not very helpful the third was the charm, had about as close to perfect as you could ask.

    These folks figure square yardage oddly. The fabric roll is OVER 4 FT wide and 3 Ft of that is concidered 1 Square yard Oh well, didnt argue since its to my advantage. We bought 12Ft off the roll, got some extra, 100 Bucks. Ill probably use a 3-M arosal product for the glue.

    Heres some pictures. We finally finished the cabinats and trim around our new refrigerator. It was about 8 inches taller than the old one and I had make the upper cabinat smaller and shorten up the upper cab. doors. There is a false BACK on this cabinat that forms a void behind it that forms the chimney for the fridge.

    You can see the false back in the cabinat and from the bottom if you look close you can see the vent holes at the rear to allow heat up into the chimney behind. The cab. will be cut almost in half. You can see the brown clips for a shelf, that is where is the bottom or the new cab. ended up. Also notice the broken and half missing piece of laminate on the face, found it in the compartment after pulling the fridge. What luck!

    This is as far as we had to DEMO. Notice the SMALL PVC pipe poking through the roof. This concerns me. On the outside we have the normal large rectangular frig roof vent and on the inside all they poked open is a 2 inch hole. Dosent seem like enough. NO GOOD

    And the finished product

    Oh, one more thing, for all you POWER HOGS, this thing runs on 1.5 amps A/C!

    FYI, Upholstery and material shops go by the running yard not square yard. most upholstery is manufactured in rolls of 54 or 60 inch widths. Joe if you still have the brand and style # it helps everyone to find it if some day we need it. These post will be around a long time.

    PS Your craftsmanship looks GREAT!
