Bongo Fury

Hello all,

Could anyone point me towards any online retailers that supply fabrics for rock roll bed cushions? The converters samples are really plain but they said if I can source my own then they will happy order the fabric.

Thanks very much,
Steve

We have been having the same problem Haven't found a decent hard wearing material yet so would also be interested in any replies ...

Hi
Try denim :

First place I looked, and there's a good choice
Ask for a couple of samples, and say what they're for
Alternatively, try vinyl...nice and wipe-clean...or Alcantara, which is used for marine seating...pricey but nicey!....too many choices...especially if you have animals 2 or 4 legged
Cheers
Helen

You could try a marine upholstery supplier like these folk in Bournemouth (so not a million miles away) or there will be others in Pompey area:

Alternatively, look up caravan upholstery suppliers like:

Thanks all for the help...

I've contacted Comfortz Leisure and a dozen converters to see if they can point me to online stockist etc. If I don't source something soon then it will most likely be very plain :S Strangely enough I have seen loads of converters using these exact patterns, fabrics:

If I could find those materials then I would be a happy man.

Thanks again

You can get the VW T5 fabric quite readily which looks similar to the stuff in the first link:

If you go to ebay comfortzleisure advertise t5t4and t3r&rvw beds and mazda bongo with various sizes and materials punch in and look

Nick at Comfortz Leisure is a top bloke! He took some photos of the materials he has in his factory and is happy to source anything. I think I'll be using him for all of the cushion upholstery.

Thanks for help
