    Hickeys? If they're still in business...
    Arnotts, perhaps? Or the branch of Guineys in North Earl Street (top floor)?

    I can't think of anything else. Oh! Maybe places that sell beads might have it, is it used to re-string necklaces, too, by chance?

    Bonded polyester is normally used in car upholstery that requires , strength and stands
    up to water , dampness ect. Its also used in the marine upholstery area.

    I dont know whether its used in necklaces ect, possibly.

    Talk to a cobbler! They'd have something like it to restitch shoes, at the very least they should point you in the right direction. Or a marine supplies place.

    There are two cobblers in Talbot Str., one closer to Amiens Street and the other nearer to Marlborough Street (and probably others around town). As for marine supplies, I think I remember a place in Clontarf near the graveyard by the coast, but I don't know if they're still there, I'll look it up later.

    Beside the graveyard is dinghy supplies, Sutton. It's further down the coast than clontarf. At a guess probably halfway between clontarf and Sutton Cross, just if you were driving thinking you missed it :)

    Dinghy supplies On the coast road is closed now. ‘Expert Hardware’ in Howth is the only place left in the area to go for boating supplies now.

    This place in dunlaoghaire specialises in sailmaking. They might have what you’re looking for?
