afvnut75 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Hi can anyone tell me as theres not much left in one of my vehicles. Where i can aquire the vynil covered sponge padding that fv430 series vehicles have,Ive been looking into the option of self adhesive horsebox padding but this has come to a dead end as no one knows who does it in my locality, Idealy i would like to get hold of 2 great sheets of the padding which is already vinyl covered and self adhesed on the back and cut it to shape Any one know where i can get hold of this stuff from in order to finish off my fv434 Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 If you're talking about the diamond patterned vinyl it is called Trakmark made by Dunlop & can be obtained from yacht chandlery places in various colours. It is very expensive. It is then stuck onto the foam. I relined a Shorland that used this. If you use normal foam it is difficult to shape at edges & in small section. It is too porous & when you apply the glue it largely collapses. I got hold of some roll mats for under sleeping bags. Damaged ones are very cheap. Glued it to the vehicle with thixotropic impact glue. Then trimmed & bevelled the edges with a sharp blade. Then glued the Trakmark on giving a couple of inches overlap. When the glue had set peeled up the edges of the foam then re-glued the Trakmark underneath the foam, clamping it where possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
