Travel screen mesh

[Monsieur Abeille]

Hi

Trying to be diligent I blowtorched a travel screen I'd received which led to a small fire

Even with my very limited DIY skills I feel I should be able to repair this - any recommendaitons as to what is the right type of mesh or where it can be purchased

Thanks in advance

I can only reitterate the excellent service from JT Wire Cloth- the link above had a discussion on mesh suppliers, and a few different ones are mentioned.

 

[Monsieur Abeille]

If anyone interested in the outcome of this, the eBay link was £12 + £6 postage for 4x 450mm squares and JT quoted £10 + £3 postage for one 450mm square.

As this is to replace the mesh on one £12ish travel screen I'll probably just end up buying a new one.

Thanks to you both anyway

Afterthought - wouldnt galvanised be overkill for a travel screen anyway? Presumably some sort of fly screen mesh would suffice?

Try JT wirecloth. When I visited earlier this year he gave me a sample of os very good small mesh ideal for travelling screens.
