Default Where to get/buy thin vinyl sheet like gloves are made of?

I think the subject just about says it all! I want to make some
stretchy waterproof covers and the ideal material would seem to be (to
me) the thin, stretchy vinyl that gloves are made of. I do want the
material pretty thin and lightweight, like the stuff gloves are made
of. I want vinyl/pvc rather than 'rubber' because it is much easier
to glue successfully in my experience, most of the 'rubbers' are
difficult and not as well glued as vinyl/PVC with a solvent weld type
glue.

However I can't find any suppliers though I have had some
'interesting' results from some of my searches, not suprising really
once you mix 'stretch' and 'vinyl'! :-)

Any ideas anyone?

EPDM pond liner from garden centres ?. About 1mm thick I think.


That's one possible route, yes. You can also get PVC pond liner which
is probably the closest to what I want that I've found so far.

Thanks.
