Replacement Blind material

I've done a search on the Forum but not come up with anything posted recently so here goes.
Got around to cleaning off mould spots on the fly screens recently. found it easiest to remove the whole blind, take apart and soak the net material in weak solution of Milton.
Result: Sparkling Clean Flyscreens. (1970's Indie band)
The shiny blackout blind material on the largest blind has also become frayed and tatty around the edges and I'd like to replace. Has anyone found a supplier with suitable fabric? ES Hartley Leisure sell Seitz fabric at an eye watering £110 for 2m width
Best solution I have found so far is a Remis Take-n-trim Caravan Blind sold for around £45plus p&p. which i assume i could remove the fabric from and use to replace.
Any other ideas?
Thanks, Ian

What about using the material from a black out blind sold in Argos 180cms wide x 160cms long for £20

Thanks, just bought a thermal blackout blind from Dunelm. Silvery grey on the outside and slightly off white inside. Probably enough fabric for several blinds and only £23.
PS anyone want a 150cm roller blind pole and fixing kit with no fabric ?!!

How easy is it to replace just the material in an existing blind? What are the steps? Thanks
