CS90 vs UL argon

**ADKrella** · 02-04-2014, 21:16

A cursory search yielded minimal results..... something about a chubby nephew?....so Ill ask you fine fellows and ladies.

Any input on the durability of these fabrics at all?

I know CS90 is heavier duty but how much?

Also, does anyone know what the total average weight savings of say... a top quilt built with UL vs CS90 would be?

A chubby nephew top quilt...nice... I've been messing around with CS90, but not sure about the weight calculations, haven't worked with UL. The CS90 is tough stuff though!

cool thanks CountryRoads.
I wish I knew about the UL stuff.
Sounds really nice but you never know I guess.

Now I am introducing 15D and it is called ARGON CS90, It will be available in three colors, Red, Orange, and Black. It weighs about .90 ounces per yard. I think it will be strong enough to use as a light hammock for a skinny person. It is meant to be quilt shell though.
