I don't think it is sold in small units, You might get a small roll and do many boats with it. I work in construction and have gotten drop offs to do my boats. I would check out construction sites or house developments and just go and ask the guys for a small piece. I would think most have extra and wouldn't mind contributing to a worthy project. Construction guys build stuff and would be interested in the unique use and SOF construction in general. The worst they could do is say no. I would also add that Tyvek tape although expensive, works fantastic and is probably the only thing that will stick to Tyvek. I use it all the time for other things around the house.

Hi Bill,

: Can this stuff be bought in rolls small enough to cover a boat, or is it only
: available in big rolls?

: Gradually getting warmer outside, have several projects that need this soon
