    Default Car Vinyl Offcuts

    Hey guys, does anyone know somewhere that sells offcuts of car vinyl, just got one of these 10" android tablets yesterday and I've scratched the back already, the only decent cases you can get are the all over leather jobs and thats so not me. I had thought of the vinyl for cupboard doors but I've heard that they arn't the best for curved edges.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Where in the NE are you? I know places like Victory signs (Cramlington) or lines & signs (Blyth) will cut you a square whatever size you want in a variety of colours. There is always wastage and cut off available if you ask nicely.

    There will be a more local signwriter nearer to you for sure though.

    What is it with steel wool? Is it steel? Or is it wool?

    what colour you after, we have some vinyl at work could 5 finger discount you some and post it off.
    Only in Britain….do we use the word “politics” to describe the process of Government. “Poli” in Latin meaning “many” and “tics” meaning “bloodsucking
    creatures”
