I am looking for polyester or polypropelene scrim.
I want it in rolls about 6 inches wide to seal the joints in a metal roof.
Does anyone know where to find this item please?

Maybe the guys in "Roofing and Guttering" would know the answer to your question.

I would and do put the scrim tape over the tapered joints then put a coat of skim over the joints to build them out. Then leave them to go off then skim over the lot either when they are dry (if dry roller a coat of unbond over to kill suction before you skim) or if they have "firmed up" just put your two coats on as nornal...
