Tyvek locally?

Post by jimserio »

My Tyvek ground cloth is beginning to show it's age and I'd like to get some for my upcoming trip this weekend. Mail order may take some time. Does anyone know of any local dealers to buy from?

Maybe. I haven't checked. But I would imagine I would need to buy a large roll of it.

Panhandling tyvek

Post by montezumawell »

We've always been able to "panhandle" Tyvek from the Bubba Boy Builder Guys who use it on a daily basis. When we see a building site with "Tyvek Evident," BOOM, we stop and Susun goes into action. You'd be AMAZED at how much Tyvek you can get for a six pack of Bud.
