Flexa Crystal Clear Vinyl 20 Gauge (54" Wide) by The Yards | Double Polished Marine Grade Vinyl | Waterproof, UV Resistant, CPSIA Compliant | Flexible Plastic for Porch Enclosure, Windows, Covers

How do I know that? Because I, like you, was looking for something that seemed impossible to find. I tried everything that I could think of - I looked at the plastic things that go under your chair at a desk, way expensive and too small. I looked for the clear plastic that you put down when you are moving and don't want to hurt your carpet or get it dirty. I searched for every kind of carpet protector that I could find, and none of them worked. Nothing worked until now...Then I found this Clear Marine Vinyl - 54"- 40 Gauge plastic, sold by the yard and my search was over. Still, I wasn't sure until it arrived. "What if it was too thin," I wondered. "What if wrinkled or slid around on the carpet?" I thought. I needn't have worried. This WAS the plastic I was looking for!In all seriousness, I was looking for a thin, yet strong, clear plastic to place our ferret cage on - that would allow me to protect my carpet, without making the room look trashy and I needed something that I could walk on, but wouldn't wrinkle and that couldn't easily be punctured or scratched through by my pets.So far, a simple order of three yards has been an outstanding choice and has worked very well. It was easily trimmed to the exact shape I needed, using a razor blade made for cutting carpet. It seems to lay flat on the floor very well. In short, it isn't perfect, but it is pretty outstanding for a wide variety of uses. I'm thrilled beyond belief with this product. Shipping was fast, the plastic was rolled up with paper between the layers so it didn't stick to itself and it is crystal clear and thick and flexible but strong.THANK YOU NICE PEOPLE!

Great product easy to work with. I was very happy with my results. It did exactly what I wanted it to do actually

I used this to enclose a 16 foot square area underneath my deck, and I am very satisfied with it!After reading awhile, 40 gauge seemed to be the most common recommendation, but I worried that the thicker the vinyl, the less clear it would be, so I got the 30 gauge, and also saved a few dollars. The 30 gauge has proven to be plenty strong after several very windy days. Yet the product was so clear, wrinkle-free and uniform, I think my worry about 40 gauge was unfounded. I used roofing screws with rubber grommets on them and screwed the vinyl right into the 6x6 deck wood supports and 2x4 horizontal supports that I added. Rubber grommet screws help ensure no tearing, even with strong wind force. We don't really get hurricanes or tornadoes here, but a few nights of 35-45mph winds and a few good storms have come through with no problems, both in freezing temperatures and warm nights. A 54-inch tall by 8 foot wide section hangs great as one piece. I thought I might need to add another 2x4 vertical reinforcement in the middle to make it two 4-foot sections, but I don't see any stress from wind, so I'm living it as-is, which helps the space feel more open and gives a better view. Your mileage may vary, depending on the wind. My area is partially sheltered by the shape of the house. This was SO much easier than glass, less expensive, and more durable for a yard with kids -- no worries about stones or balls breaking it. It has stayed clean for several months, despite mowing the lawn around it and kicking up dirt. I hosed it off once, and that's it.Tip: When you first unroll it, it will have a lot of static electricity on the surface that loves to collect dust and dirt. So if you are cutting it to size on a carpet or outside, save the paper overwrap to keep underneath the vinyl as you are cutting it to keep the vinyl clean until you mount it. The static dissipated after the first day and hasn't been a problem since.I ordered more than 1 roll's worth. The vendor cut the extra to my size, and thoughtfully wrapped the extra cut around the standard roll with a ply of paper between. It was heavy, but it shipped fine in a cardboard box. I would certainly order again for another project!

The screen door photo shows the crystal clear vinyl. The left two panels of the chicken coop are the clear vinyl, contrasted with the painter’s plastic on the right. This is high quality, well packaged, tissue paper on the roll keeps it from sticking to itself so it’s easy to work with, sturdy. Came quickly. One of the best purchases I’ve made this fall. I was quite happy with the crystal clear tarps I had previously bought for the porch, but they were wrinkled and it’s too cold to clarify with heat from a hair dryer. So I tried this product that I’m reviewing and I’m so very enthusiastic about it. I used a staple gun to attach it to the screen door and the chicken coop and it’s so sturdy I’m not worried that a wind will rip it off. I got the 20 gage thickness. I’m also impressed with how flexible it has been even in the cold. I had been worried it would crack if it got too cold. Not worried now. I highly recommend.

I used this clear vinyl for the windows of the full enclosure of the pilot house on my boat. It was very easy to work with and crystal clear. The product was delivered in a roll with a tissue paper in between and the delivery was very fast. I have nothing bad to say about this purchase, it is an excellent product, great seller and I highly recommend it
