Source for magnetic sheets
 
Ok . . I have searched the interenet and found many sources for the magnetic sheets but none that have rolls of length or of width that I want.

Need to cut the stuff for numbers, nose protection, etc.

Anyone have their golden source that they would be willing to share here.

Thanks as always.

You have a magnetic nose? I just hope this doesn't degenerate into same wierd thing as that "socks" thread. Zinc oxide should protect your nose.

Most local signs stores have them.....

BTW, I can make a bunch of vinyl numbers that can be used and then taken off.....toss and use a new set.

Magnetic ones need a piece of tape on the leading edge as they will fall off over 50 mph.....

Save yourself time and anguish.. contact Chuck Moreland.. Elephant racing. already cut ready to install. Somethings are easier done when you let the other guy do it.

I second McMaster Carr. That's where I got mine, and it's pretty good price and color selection as well.

Two $35 rolls of Mag Vinyl is enough to do the full trunk treatment on two cars. One roll will do if you want a single color.

Yep, you can buy the finished product [slightly different design to mine] from Elephant Racing via Pelican.

I've run with this for more than one full track season, and it has already prevented a ton of rock scars. No rubber and track spooge to remove from the paint, either. It works well.
