What type of fabric or material is this?

[bozzhawg]

I was just curious, what type of material is the silver,shiney fabric in the center of this panel... Not the chrome rib piece or the handles but the larger area...?
42679

Is it chrome mesh?
pyramid vinyl?
speaker grill cloth?

????????????????

Looks like it could be perforated aluminum, polished, on top of a light colored backing. But of course this is just a wild guess!

[crustysack]

it is a perforated stainless steel

[67 ls1 vert]

looks nice. I agree... looks to be some kind of metal with tiny holes. Mesh grill material.

I get it from mcmaster.com. They offer many different sytles and openings. It can also be polished.

Here is a picture of the stainless in my wife's 67. Not a good quality pic though.

THX, is it the 9255t151 staggered .033 hole diameter 20% open area

The fine? what percentage of open area and hole diameter do you use?

The pics Looks good....

What seats are those, are they the procar elite seats by scat in the front

Thx again

I usually use 40% for speaker grills and 20% for cosmetic only panels. Depending on your application, your opening and thickness will vary.
Yes, the front seats are the elite series. I have the ralley series in my 69 camaro but I like the elite series better. The rears were custom built out of foam bucket cushions I got from a place out of Houston,TX.

And the 40% is still perforated staggered steel, not the diamond expanded?

Thx for all of your help...

Yes, only staggered steel. Haven't used any diamond as of yet.
