Black Plastic Sheet

Does anyone know what the black plastic sheet with a pin prick type pattern on it is called? I saw it on Caterhams yesterday and I know it's ben mentioned on here before. They sellit on Ebay cheap enough but I just wondered if anyone local had any, save all the postage and courier messing around.
Thanks.

Do you mean pinseal?

I think you are probably looking for Pinseal ABS

I used 6mm ABS pinseal sheet for my rear shelf, looks good, but I found it expanded and warped in the sun. Maybe with more fixing points
it would not warp, ust something to bear in mind.

For lining a cockpit 2mm pinseal ABS sheet is good. For a back panel I would use 6mm plywood and cover it with vinyl leathercloth.

I have aluminium covered with carpet for the rear panel. It's just the inside, side panels. I was looking at 2 mm. Ebay seems to be champion.
