I'm trying to locate a similar fabric to the stuff thats behind all the cushions. Does anyone know what its called or know of a source for it? I'm not too concerned about it having Mariah printed on it(although it would be nice).

I just built a new sundeck and this is all thats holding me up.

Thank You

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for, the vinyl fabric? Mariah used an incredibly heavy grade vinyl, almost 3x as thick as the competitors were using. If that's what you're looking for, let me know and I can pull up the specs on the vinyl fabric. I know it was also treated with PreFixx, a "stain guard" material as well. The chances of finding it printed with the Mariah logo are pretty much impossible. Mariah "branded" parts are incredibly hard to come by these days. You could probably get an upholstery shop to do it for you, but it definitely would not be cheap.

Let us know specifically what you're looking for and we'll see if I can point you in the right direction. If you have any pics, those would help too.

Wow, I did not know about mariah using the heavy grade vinyl in their boats. That is interesting to know.

hi jmills224,

Are you referring to the cloth mesh directly underneath the vinyl, or the vinyl on the button of your seats and cushions?

Any pictures would help too.

Thanks,

WetWilly,

I am referring to the cloth mesh that is on the underneath side of the upholstered piece. I will try to get some pictures uploaded this afternoon.

Thank You,

Hello Group,

This is just an update. I've got a call in to Mariah to see if they still use this fabric. Maybe some of the members with newer Mariah's can chime in If Mariah no longer uses it, I did find this stuff which I think is the same stuff w/o the logo:

Hopefully this might help someone else out!

Thank You

Hi jmills224

Looks like you found a perfect alternative!! Polyester's waterproof so it makes a perfect material for boats.

Contacting "New" Mariah was a great idea too!

Let us know what they say!

On my '06 model that fabric is not used, it is kind of similar but no embossing of "Mariah" on it.
And I very much doubt if the marine vinyl is of the same quality that the older ones have.
