Does anyone have their flybridge and/or cockpit fitted with Movida or Movida Met covered upholstery? Looking for a pale grey or beige and not getting very far online. The manufacturer's (at least I think they are) site isn't much help either - http://www.sailmakerint.com/movida_en.php

I'll have access to samples when I visit PMYS over the next few months but I'm trying to do as much prep as possible before. Any comments or pics appreciated :)
 
Aiui Movida is Silvertex, made by Spradling and distributed by CTP in the UK. I have Titanium over Carbon in the cockpit; looks v nice but does get hot in direct sunlight.
 
I have just had my boat done in movida beige here is a pic not sure if its what your looking for and here is a link to my other thread with more pics

Magnum my tender and my foredeck cushions are silver/pale grey movida. Various pics on here ( I can't link now- no bandwidth). It's nice stuff. Colourwise it matches sunbrella cadet grey perfectly (I have that on the rest of my external cushions)

Thanks John. Just realised that I have Movida Met / Silvertex Plata scatter cushions in Magnum's cockpit. It's quite nice but maybe too silvery as the principal upholstery material. There's a pale grey made by Silvertex called Ice which might be more suitable. Either would be combined with a graphite grey detail for contrast.

EDIT: Not sure if Ice is actually grey or just plain white.

I did try and find some pics of your seating but got lost in an 89 grillion page thread :D

We had the cockpit redone using Silvertex in Macadamia which is a light beige. Below are some pics taken on a dull day in April - looks much lighter in the flesh and doesn't get particularly hot even in the summer sun in SoF.

Thanks DAW. The colour looks great in your first photo of the helm seat and much lighter than the others. Would you say that photo gave a reasonably accurate representation?
 
Its definitely the best representation, although the colour changes a lot depending on the light. I'll try to send you a PM with some other photos.
