ScarecrowR31 8 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Hi guys, anyone know where I can purchase some sunbrella material for a boom-tent/awning (preferably on the north shore)? Also anyone else used other canvas type material that has worked well and where did you get it? Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 QCD in Collage Hill, PonceEnBerry. Gourocks in Partiki Rd, Avondale. Use the Force and Seek the source Grasshopper. Those 2 are 2 of the major sources of stuff like that. Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Sunbrella is just a brand name. There are many other manufacturers out there that have materials with specs. I can't remember the mane, but a mate has a place over in Glenfield. He is on the road that Mega 10 and the new Bunnings is on and is at the top of the rise in behind Ramset. His name is Graig Smith, but no it's not smithy here, nor the Craig of Rocna fame. Funny, he's the 5th Craig Smith I have found in Auckland. Anyway, he is a real expert and great guy and if you want work down, he is a very skilled canvas worker and top sailkmaker and sailor. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Sunbrella importers/wholesalers Topfab in Henderson (somewhere off Lincoln Rd from memory). You'll get proper wholesale prices that way and much greater range than boat cover places can provide. Link to post Share on other sites
Scotty3934 5 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Another Acrylic Canvas in Docril which is equally as good as Sunbrella. Go have a chat to the boys at QCD and they will sort ya out. Link to post Share on other sites
