Marine carpet -Melbourne
« on: June 11, 2013, 05:14:21 PM »
Hi there everyone

I'm looking for some marine carpet in 2.4m widths to line our CT floor. Does anyone know where in Melbourne I might find it. I've tried bunnings and BCF (online) ... Everywhere seems to stock 2m only.

Thanks for the help

Cheers

I found the same when looking for 'annexe matting. I ended up using a 2m piece, in reality it was easier to work with than a perfect fit piece and it will be cheaper.

Every where I looked only sold 2m widths.

My camper floor is 2.5m wide, but I thought I wouldn't be walking around the edges anyway.

most if not all places will only sell them in 2.0m widths.
I bought mine from The big green shed. Instead of running it width ways I ran it length ways and made it that way.
If not would two sections be useable for you?

I can tell you that using the right glue and straight edges you would be hard pressed to see any gap?
I use 3m contact cement I can't remember what number but it comes in a larger spray can, and it is designed for laminating.
I have been using it for years, and nothing, I mean NOTHING comes close to how well it sticks.
