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.....

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.
