[amayausers] Re: Tire Cover

We did that some years ago for our own RV.  It may have been a different 
material from what you describe.  Ours was vinyl covered fabric, kind of like 
car 
seat material.  It was very easy to sew, we used a Barudan machine for it, but 
that shouldn't make much difference.  You might want to sew it at a little 
slower speed.  We used both Rayon and polyester threads and it looked great for 
almost two seasons, but then faded rapidly.  It still was interesting looking, 
but the rainbow colors of our design were pretty much gone.

fabric 
covered vinyl and would be exposed to anything that a vehicle is exposed to. 
Several questions: we use polyester thread - how well will it handle the elemen
ts/how long will it look accceptable?  Also the fabric covered vinyl, how well 
will it sew out? We cannot think of anything similar to do a test sew on and 
the covers are about $25 ea. Anyone else had a request like this? Any help 
would be appreciated.
