Stagefab Custom
Manufacturing Inc.
Black Fabric
Velour 25oz
Inherently Flame Retarded
The Flame Retardant will
not wash out if wetted in any way
For several
years now Stagefab has been using superb craftsmanship
in
maintaining and building of Stage Drapery. Over
these years we acquired off
cuts of fabric or fabric
that does not make the grade to be made into Stage
Drapery. Sometimes these off cuts are just too short,
have small holes, have
crush marks or are misdyed.
This fabric would be perfect for that backstage
masking, riser skirts, catwalk masking or anywhere where
you just need that
piece of black to hide something.
