I'm thinking about a foldable (for a while now),
& I am looking for some skin options.

a basic difference between a regular sof & a foldable is that with
a sof the skin stays on the frame, so it is never folded.
It can be painted with any color, & once the paint is dry it will
not break because the skin never folds.

with foldables it's a different story.

I was thinking of using billboards pvc banner material for the skin,
but I'm not sure how well it can be stretched over the curves of a hull,
& then be sewn along some wrinkles that can't be stretched.

another possibility is to use any cloth used on a regular sof, & paint it
with somekind of paint that will stay flexible, so the skin can be folded
& unfolded again & again.

I'm not sure if such paint exist.

I heard (read) somebody mentioned latex based paint.

what exactly is it ?

does it turn to something like latex gloves material when it dries ?

if so, than is it possible to fold & unfold cloth covered with that paint ?

what materials such paint sticks to ?

canvas ?

nylon ?

polyester ?

etc' ?

does such paint has uv protection ?

price/performance ?

links ?

any help appreciated,
