    I was looking a few years ago and the last place that made them (TruTone in FL?) closed a while back. Some company was supposed to pick up the ball but as far as I know the flexi is dead.
    I hope sombody proves me wrong here.

    I also heard it was dead.
    I think the grand royal and stress magazines had some of the last ones.

    suggest you do a search over at vinyl vulture - there have been some threads on this there and those guys seemed to exhuast every possible avenue, the prognosis isn't good but there may have been one remaining spot, I'm not 100% on that tho

    Eva-Tone?

    Yeah I ran into the exact same thing. We were trying to do a flexidisc for Life Sucks Die and everyone pointed us to this spot in Florida. I apparently called them like one month after they stopped producing them.

    Have you tried these people? Apparently, they took up the slack from Lyntone, which was the principal flexi manufacturer in the UK until their closure;
