    Default White PVC backdrop

    Hi all,

    I am looking for a white PVC backdrop, mine is a a bit worn now and perhaps someone can direct me to where I could find a replacement - preferably in or near Pretoria.

    I am also looking at alternatives and have another request - a school is planning a Carols by Candlelight evening and would like to set up a screen between the posts of the rugby poles. Canvas may be an option but they would need a piece of 3m by 6m...would the PVC not be better and more durable?

    Thank you..

    Thank you Marlie, that is an option I will keep in mind. I am still going to look for the PVC as I am a bit worried that the paper will get damaged quicker.

    Anyone has experience with the paper rolls?

    Matt Raven from Ivok Studio www.ivok.co.za also stocks them. If I remember correctly it's black on one side and white on the other (reversible).

    Yes, paper does get damaged easier (as I look at my roll of white seamless paper that happened to be under a leak in the garage). I'll also be looking at the PVC as an alternative.

    you can also speak to someone who does digital printing - they also print onto PVC with white on one side and black on the other side. i get my supplies from Maizey (i do computer sign making) and i think they only sell the PVC in full rolls - not 100% sure because i get a printer to do all my printing and never had to buy it directly.

    I will purchase a roll and cut it into equal portions. The roll is 50 M - just a bit too much for my purposes!!

    Chris, can you please describe what you ordered from Andrew a bit better.

    Is it PVC, and what colour ? etc.

    BTW, you profile settings do not allow us to send PM's.

    Cheers

    I also use PVC, but only the white side. It works great and cleans easily.
    The reverse side black is too reflective, so for black I still use cloth.
