Polyester thread

hello all. im new to all this, i have just bought to singers machine and serviced them.

188u and a 196k5. the 196k5 is for sale as i have no room for it.

im after a heavy thread but i don't know to much about them. i know that Barbour thread m30 plays up and wont go through but i need something heavy(ish) am i right in thinking 75 is about the same as the stuff that's used for jeans.

i need to stitch the ballistic nylon that im after. can anyone recommend a good place to buy from or a good site with the right sort of help/info. thanks Phil.
