Does anyone know of a good source to buy 8 mil or 16 mil vinyl film from? I'm getting requests for the thicker vinyls from moto-x and other sources, but none of my local suppliers stock anything this thick.
Your concern is the adhesive of the low energy mx plastic. Normal vinyl just doesn't stick. Avery just came out with a new vinyl just for this purpose as well. Your best off using it then laminating with a thick clear. Watch the gas tanks as well. They outgas, so make some cut lines in the decals that go on it.

Thanks for all the help, guys. Graphics MS seemed to have the best options. I also found some thick material from 3M, but the price and availability is really prohibitive.
The one supplier I talked to didn't want to order until THEY had an order, which is fine, but when a roll is $800, I want a definite date, which they couldn't or wouldn't provide.
I checked Avery's website, but I didn't find anything on there yet...very hard website to navigate, for me anyways.
