Upholstery fabric...

Post by jagsman »

Hey folks,

Can anyone help please? Need some advice on type (thickness? I dunno...) of material to use to cover new foam for RnR bed in my T25. Any thoughts please? How "heavy duty" does it need to be? Any good (and cheap!) suppliers out there....?

Cheers!

Ebay is worth a look. A mate of mine got a massive roll of upholstry fabric for her caravan from an upholstery fabric supplier in Italy on Ebay it was shipped next day and cost about £40, a loot cheaper than buying it by the metre.

We got ours from a large material shop. Couldn't tell about thickness though we asked the kind lady..she seemed to know what she was talking about.
