Hey All,

I'm wondering if anyone on here has any ideas on where to get 5 or 6 foot wide aluminum flashing for the top of our camper-in-progress. We're in Branford, CT.

The need is pretty imminent, as we will be driving off for OR on June 1. If I can't work the Al out, then it'll probably be marine grade varnish on luan.

Thanks!

The most likely sources for wide aluminum sheet (most likely white on one side) are commercial truck repair businesses.

Not sure about the Branford area, but up at the Southeast end I would try Courville's Garage in Uncasville on Rt 163, just off of 395 near the Mohegan Sun Casino.

I haven't checked there to confirm, but we did have the box on the straight job at work repaired there after one of the shipping clerks clobbered the front of the box on a low hanging tree branch.
