Vinyl Roofing????


I was told about a product that I assume is new, but maybe not. Keep in mind I didn't see it myself, so I may be way off, but the way it was described to be was that it looks like metal roofing...


\_________/---\_________/---\_________/---\_________/---\

That type of metal roofing.

"BUT", they said, "it's actually vinyl" .

The way they talked it was pretty high dollar, which shot down my first thought; that it was that cheap, awning type, material.

Anyone heard of this? Any idea where to find out about it? Links, etc?

Thanks in advance

Re: Vinyl Roofing????


You sure they're not talking polycarbonate or acrylic? Those are common if you got the cash. Also transparent. Is this stuff? Rich.
