My question was:
Does anyone know of a source of T.P.E. (Thermoplastic Elastomer) sheet now
that American Plastics no longer carries it?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can get TPE from the manufacturer at a much better cost than the O &
P suppliers. Better yet...they are located in Michigan! Here is the web
address: <URL Redacted>
I believe they have stopped manufacturing TPE II, but if they have any
left in stock, you might want to try a piece. It's a little more rigid
than reg. TPE but is easier to work with when vacuum forming.
