where can i source wood effect vinyl please?
Posted by Martin Pearson on June 4, 2009 at 1:07 pmHi all, does anyone know who supplies the wood and stone effect display vinyls. I know Graphityp use to do some but can’t see them on their website. There are people selling them on the auction sites so one of the suppliers must still be selling them.
Need to find some thing for my kitchen in the new flat :lol1:Graeme Clark replied 14 years, 10 months ago 11 Members · 14 Replies -

Thanks Ian but Victory don’t do it anymore either. There must be someone who still supplies the stuff.

why not get a good print and laminate……must be a huger choice.

Have you considered some of the Dibond and other composite manufacturers wood grain products Martin? These would make excellent splash backs 😀

We’ve used a patterned composite on the walls in the gents lavs in the pub, easy to keep clean!

Thanks for the replies people, Phill I hadn’t thought about composite board because I didn’t know you could get it in a wood effect but it’s a bit pricey for me at the moment anyway.
Rich, thanks for the offer but I think I would be as well just buying a bit of fablon from B&Q or maybe I will just leave it as it is for now. -
Hi mate, i’m not sure if this is the stuff you mean but Robert Horne have in the Avery range: ‘Bravo Burl’ & ‘Cheyenne Teak’?

quote Otto Peltonen:3M DiNoc. All you need is plenty of cash, though.
3M just sent the new 2009 Di-NOC book to us and you can tell its for the Japanese market predominately, but boy what a range. As Otto says you might have to re-mortgage the flat to pay for the stuff though!!

The 3M Dinock is an excellent product "by the looks of it". I was recently introduced to it by Wm Smiths.
I always liked the old rolls of marble, wood, stone effect vinyls that the likes of grafityp and victory offered. (i think grafityp still have some end of stock "on offer" from memory as i seen in their magazine) anyway… i could be wrong here but is it not actually a WRAP vinyl or should i say can be used as one on a temporary basis? i could also be wrong but is the recent post on Carbon Fibre Roof Wrap not actually done in 3M Dinock vinyl also?
https://www.uksignboards.com/viewtopic.p … 23&start=0i have seen some of the new DiBond range of composite board on offer with the wood grain effect. not sure how popular that will be in the sign industry but certainly should be popular in the building industry.

Hi Rob you are spot on, DI-NOC is principally an architectural film very popular in japan for building applications. The latest 2009 spec book from 3m has literally hundreds of wood finishes and then hundreds of other finishes all of which are phenomenally expensive! We used it on the BMW roof even though its not a wrap material per se but at 270 microns thick and with great abrasion resistance it was fit for the task. With the 3m "comply" air release system on the back it was a doddle to fit too.
Interestingly enough we have now started to apply the APA carbon film (after a recommendation on here) and whilst thinner it does provide a pleasing result and for a lesser cost than DI_NOC. We are about to do some kitchen units in it so we will let you know with some pics for the end result!!
