Car carpet????
I want to do the rear of my bus in black carpet. Anyone know where to get some good cheap black stuff from or even a second hand place that sells it
in Sydney, it doesn’t have to be the good stuff because it will get dirty from Mountain bikes.
Cheers

Try Clarkes rubber. they also do carpets etc. Mind you you could do it in black rubber and it will clean easier , just a thought.

They would have carpet of a type that would be waterproof at Clarke rubber.
You can get stretchy carpet, like what is used on Sub-Woofer-Maaaaayte boxes, but it attracts everything to it and clasps it so that it is very
difficult to vacuum.

hey Ron,
I've used marine carpet in the back of my last few busses. pretty hard wearing and crap resistant. when it gets all crappy and muddy, I jusy hang
it on the clothes line and squirt it off. works a treat.:thumb

from memory, it was like $28/m at bunnings for nice looking black carpet, but don't quote me, that sounds pretty expensive but I remember
thinking at the time, shit, that's expensive...
