Dennis;

 

Have you only used it for flat panels like those under your winch mounts? You 
mention “stiff” in your description. 

 

I’m looking for a somewhat flexible material that can be used to replace the 
original Naugahyde covered luan panels in the headliner of my 38. These panels 
all seem to have a slight curvature to them. So I’m wondering if this might be 
a suitable material for the replacement panels?

Subject: Stus-List Thin plastic sheet for headliner access and other uses

 

Following up on a recent thread about plastic sheet for headliner accesses and 
other uses on our boats.

I used a material from mcmaster.com <http://mcmaster.com>  to replace the 
removable overhead panels which access the winch bolts on Touche'.  The 
material is strong, stiff, easy to work, looks nice and closely matches the 
original panels.  I've used it in several other applications as well.  It is 
smooth on one side and has a light texture, like Naugahyde, on the other.  Very 
nice material.

Anyway, having failed to find the invoice for the stuff in Touche's file and 
being completely uncertain which of mcmaster's many choices it was, I sent a 
small sample to mcmaster for identification.  They quickly responded with this: 


Formable Chemical-Resistant Kydex Acrylic/PVC

Good customer service, in my opinion.  They said they were returning my sample. 
 Sheesh!  It was less than 2x2 inches.  They could have tossed it.

 

I intend to order some more as I'm nearly out.
