Kari, I don't have a source for you but on our plywood gallery walls we have a fiber / fabric covering called Sisal. Everything from screws, every kind of nail to small lag screws have gone into those walls for around 23 years now. We're at a point now where we need to renovate but I'm amazed at how much abuse that covering has taken. We do about 8-10 exhibits a year. The plywood behind it started to give before the covering. Hope this helps, Jerry Fahey Kari Carlisle wrote: >Hello! >I want to use carpet to cover wood panels for hanging art in periodic art shows. They will get a lot of use over time.
