I've been searching for sheets of artificial brick textured sheets. You
know the sort of thing - I think they used to come in 4' x 4' sheets,
perhaps 3 or 4 mm thick and looked just like a brick wall.

B&Q used to stock them but I haven't seen them there for a few years, and
I've not been able to turn up anything on the net.

Anybody know where I can source them, or similar textures?

Cheers,
Neil

Yea that's a thought - but it would be much easier and probably a better
effect to acquire the factory produced ones.

True,but like wallpaper these things go out of fashion and no longer get
stocked or sold. ;-)

Yep - looks like that's what's happened in this case. I just thought
somebody might know where it can still be found.

Many thanks all,

Can't help with that, but I have some flying ducks....
