Trains For Lastolite Hilite

[68lbs]

Quick query... some time ago I set up a studio at work for shooting products, which used a lastolite hilite background. It's working a treat with minimal pp work, except that we can't shoot full length. We want to experiment with some full model shots now, and I need a train for the background.

Lastolite do a wipe clean vinyl train, but it looks like it comes on a roll? Would I need to get a rig to hang the vinyl from too?

I've also seen those bottletop backgrounds, but they seem to only come in dark colours or chromakey and I want to blow the background out.

Can someone point me in the direction of the best solution? I want to get it ordered in for delivery end of the week if possible!

This is what the Lastolite train looks like: Best thing for it to be honest.

Don't get much for your money, do ya?! A bit of banner vinyl with some velcro stitched to the edge! Damn, I should start making these at home and marketing them.

Oh... it's just arrived btw.
