In Response To: Re: low density polyethylene skin (joel mulder)
The coated PVC 'Truck Side' material is used to print billboards by some companies, Metromedia technologies (MMT) being one in the USA and Australia. The billboards are printed in one piece, up to 40 feet long.
Now the question is what happens to the old billboards when the advertising campaign is over? They do not get reprinted (at least not by MMT).
If anyone can get hold of one, then there's a lifetime supply of skins! That is, as long as you don't mind Coke red on one side of the material.
(I'm looking up an old friend when I get back to Australia who's still in the business - If I only knew what I had when I was there!)
