Product Details

Black Essentials brings together more than a dozen black grains and patterns for projects where the exact surface look matters as much as the color. Options include smooth and pebbled leather looks, perforated styles, ostrich, alligator, and other specialty textures.

Best for: Automotive, residential, hospitality, and general upholstery that calls for black vinyl with a specific grain or decorative pattern.

Choose another vinyl if: You want the broadest color selection—see Denali. For maximum-duty contract seating, choose Spirit Millennium.

Texture differences are significant in this group. Order a $5 sample before committing to cut yardage.

Product Notes

Technical performance varies by the underlying pattern. Ask Carolyn Fabrics to confirm the specific construction and performance requirements for your selected grain before using it for a specification-driven commercial job.

Care

For routine cleaning, use mild soap and water, rinse with clean water, and dry with a lint-free cloth. Confirm stronger cleaning steps for the specific selected pattern.

Care & Cleaning
Clean with mild soap and water or approved vinyl cleaner. Wipe dry after cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners, strong solvents, or scrub pads. Test stronger disinfecting products in an inconspicuous area first.
