Marley ??
No, not the Christmas Carol character. The black stuff you put on the deck. Do you ever use it?

Re: Marley ??
Use it all the time. Most rock shows tour with it. Every corporate show uses either carpet or Marley. Except, like Leko and gel, true Marley does not exist any more, and has become a generic term for any vinyl dance floor. Current manufacturers are Rosco Floor, Harlequin, and StageStep.

Re: Marley ??
Anytime someone is dancing onstage, it helps a ton. My GF (dancer) will not walk onto a stage to dance unless there is one down.

Re: Marley ??
Most rock stuff I've done they either don't care about the deck, are using carpet remnants (to soak up the Faygo http://www.insaneclownposse.com/detect.php), or are using a custom stage. Only time I ever see Marley is in touring theatrical productions.
Reason I ask is I'm putting together a fashion show and they want it for the entire 104' x 16' runway and deck. In white.

Re: Marley ??
Are they planning on dancing on it? If not I don't see why they'd want/need it. My guess is that they just want the white. Would painting the deck and runway be an option?
Meh, if they want to burn that much of their budget let em.

Re: Marley ??
It has a different feel under foot than other decking material. If they are walking barefoot marley has a bit of a give and is 100% splinter free. If they will be wearing high heels that can hurt the marley (looking at you ballroom dancers)

Re: Marley ??
Nope. Everything is coming in for the event. The venue is a former department store being converted into an art gallery. This will be the first of what could be many events there. The deck isn't carpet, it's hard black vinyl. They want white. I offered an acrylic stage, but they didn't like that idea. They're wanting a white skirt on the deck, but I don't see that happening.
Video, sound, pipe and drape, decking, chairs, the whole enchilada.

Re: Marley ??
White Marley doesn't stay white especially when walked on...so I'm not sure its a good choice for what you're doing.
