    DRAT!!!!

    I just looked at the link, as I now (Finally) want a 20' piece. Sadly, the item has ended.

    I'm thinking of contacting the vendor to see if he is getting anymore, will let all know if I do & results.

    I agree they feel different.

    But on this website, DuPont says Tyvek is also polyproplylene. http://www.tyvek.com/whatistyvek.htm

    But polypropylene is a very common plastic, so who knows how similar these two fabrics are.

    Tyvek without the brand and mark printed all over it? And with a bubble-looking surface? Buyer beware!

    Hee hee there is no bubble surface at all...it is just a bad looking photo (or just a very good micro photo)
    and as stated above if you look on the Tyvek site, it comes in many forms.

    I love it and now wish I had bought more...sad to see it is gone.
    I thought about making a pack cover and some stuff sacks out of it.
    Guess I will have to get the home construction kind now
    Life's too short not to have Credit Card bills...so Charge It!!!
