larger size tyvek disposable suits

[silveraire]

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get larger size suits? My wife's mother recently passed leaving her father alone with alot of time on his hands. I was exited to see his interest and exitement when helping me with my latest resto project. I would like for him to be able to help, but for the life of me I can't seem to find larger tyvek suits. He is about 6'2, 325lbs(just a guess). He wears 4x shirt size. I tried to put him in one of my xl suits, but that was an event to say the least. I really don't wan't him working around fiberglass w/o a suit. Any help would be appreciated. ty in advance.

p.s. I have found them online, but I would rather not buy a case of 25 or more.

Check with your local saftey equipment supply stores. They have them around Charlotte up to 6X. Lowes and HD don't carry a good selection. I only use the hooded ones and the Lowes and HD don't even carry them (least around here they don't)

Commerical paint supply houses carry them too.

I get mine from Sherman Williams. It is not tyvek but it is the same material.

PM me with your Address and I'll UPS you a couple. I am 6'4" 315# and have a bunch of Kimberly Clarke "STRETCH" Tyvek Suits that a fellow iBoater was gracious enough to donate to me. I don't think he would mind if I "Pay if Forward" a little bit.
