Hello Steve,

Try http://www.fjratchford.co.uk/contacts.htm

They're in Stockport. I have some samples from them here, and almost certainly they will have suitable material, but I'm not sure if they will supply small quantities, but its worth a try.

Thanks for that Howard. I had a look and it actually says they will supply small quantities for the amateur by either post or collection. I've just requested some samples and prices for now. Steve.

I received samples from FJ Ratchford (there Rexine is actually made by Wardle Storeys) and also Arbetex from Fiber Mark (http://www.redbridge.co.uk/fra_pro.htm). bought a metre of green.

Steve.
