Well I just tried myself and it did'nt! Although I checked with annother supplier just now and can get the hexgrip board, but only in brown and size....4x8. So it can be transported flat! Tho personally, I usualy supply this as a fitted back deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamanx Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Try a commercial vehicle body build supplier, like Jaggers or Commercail Body Fittings and the like. This stuff is used exstensively in the industry and sells for about £30-£35 an 8 x 4 sheet. Its known as Wizi Deck or Pheonal coated ply, comes is a variety of thickness'. If you have any difficulty let me know and I'll try and help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeping Up Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 One strange property of this board is that altough it has reasonably good non-slip properties for humans, our dogs found it impossible to get a grip when it was wet, and I had to glue a couple of small pieces of Astroturf doormat at the edges, othersie the dogs kept falling int the cut when they tried to jump ashore.

David Schweizer Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) Avon Plywood in Keynsham (between Bristol and Bath) used to sell it. A bit far from Oxford but others might find it useful , they also used to sell half sheets for small jobs (10% supplement) Edited January 10, 2008 by David Schweizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLWP Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 This is interesting: http://advancedtechnicalpanels.co.uk/image...0Nov%202007.pdf Looks like there are a variety of finishes, thicknesses and materials. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHutch Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Also as an aside, if anyone has any off cut bits in the cheshire/staffordshire area they no longer want, ive been saying should get around to putting a top on out coal bunker (at home) for nearly as long now as i had been saying i'd build the thing in the first place, maybe 6 years ago! But a peice of resin board would be ideal at the right price, ie, not a full sheet. Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
