    New Vapor Barrier material like Thermadrape.

    This is a material I have that is somewhat similar to what the thermadrape material is made out of. This material I have is made with a non woven backing instead of the paper cellous material that is laminated on the Thermadrape material.


    I have about 10 to 15 yards of this material for now it is 46" wide of the roll. Since I have no use for all of it. So I figured its worth $15/yard shipped. You can order 1 or 10 yards just $15 a yard.

    I am making some videos of gear I have made with this material and show you some tricks to heat sealing this material for perfect seal instead of sewing it!

    What's the other layer made of?
    What's it weigh?
    Where do you get it if you want more than what you are offering?

    Doesn't look very similar to the Thermadrape material to me.
