Dennis

I just had to answer your just gotta answer.  LOL

I used Home Depot FRP sheets to replace the original headliner panels that were 
made of vinyl covered plywood.  They were in deplorable shape from water 
damage.  After re-bedding everything and painting the headliner with Interlux 
Blue Glo white paint 
I secured the FRP panels with 4200, no screws. They have been there for over 4 
years.  Gone through a few freeze/thaw cycles up here in the great white north. 
 Also they withstood a trip to the Bahamas and back and I don't think there is 
anything worse than Florida's humidity.

In my biased opinion my headliner looks great and the salon is a lot brighter.

Joe,

McMaster-Carr. I order materials from both Jamestown Distributers and M/Carr 
and one thing is for certain, the order from Mc-Master Carr will be at your 
door the next day…

Given the quality of the material and the time savings it isn’t worth it for me 
to even consider laying up sheet FRP.

My $0.02.

Best,

Joe - not so hard to make your own.  You could layout on any flat surface using 
waxed paper as a release liner.  See blog link below

I just gotta answer this one.  Years ago I had a guy ask me to install this
sheeting inside his boat.  He wanted it all along the inside of the hull.
I asked him why he wanted his cabin to look like a bathroom at Waffle
House.  He never called me back.

I've used this sheet to surface the top of a berth flat (i.e. under the
cushion.)  Adhesives don't work really well with it.  I had better luck
with Formica equivalents.

A Google search shows several suppliers but mcmaster.com probably has one
of the better selections and more convenient sites:

I got some 1/2", 2'x4' from Jamestown Distributors for ~$200 but, IIRC the
McMaster Carr prices are better.  Do your own research.

Joe, 
I know some people have been making rigid biminis using frp from Home Depot and 
Lowes which comes smooth on one side and rippled on the other.
