I got mine at Wal-Mart, in the fabric section. They only had one size, I think it was 54" or something like that, so then you just cut it to what you need.

Fancie Flight....I did post some info about clear vinyl sheeting awhile back.

Here is the information on the roll:

Clear Vinyl Sheeting--non yellowing and UV stable
8mil thick 36" wide / 25' long roll


Hubby got this in the home building supplies section of the store....where the windows and doors were. This stuff is often used to be a temporary window and also used to cover the windows in the winter etc. If you ask the employee where "Clear Vinyl Sheeting" is I am sure they will direct to to the right area.

Hope this helps! :D

Bonzo...I was the one who was using the clear vinyl sheeting for my flight cage. I have it on 2 sides and the back of my cage to keep the poop from shooting onto the wall. I like it because it is clear so you hardly see it and helps keep drafts away too. And when there gets to be poop on it I just lift up the sheet piece and wipe it down. :D

It is also useful for putting down under your cages to protect the floor (if you don't have carpeting) from poop and scratches.

Go here for a pic of how I attached it to my cage and more discussion about the vinyl sheeting----->Vinyl Sheeting Post

In Walmart it's located in the fabric section (sewing, crafts, etc).

I got some plastic coated paper from the pet store it is about 19" wide that has a nature scene on it. It is sold to go on the backs of fish tanks. The 1 I chose, there are several, looks like a jungle. I just cover the bottom half of the cages.
