Hey guys, I have a homemade studio at my apartment. I'm actually using white photography paper rolls. Work great but I might have to spend 70 bucks in a couple of weeks since I use it a lot and it gets dirty. I need a white fabric that I could wash quickly or that repels dirt and doesn't get wrinkles. Any suggestions of what can I use to substitute for the photo paper? Links are appreciated. Thanks.

A roll of linoleum flooring. Many budget studios do this. You can paint the back side of the linoleum white or Green. Just nail the linoleum to the wall and let the slack roll on the floor. You will have a nice cheap semi permanent cyc that can be repainted.

I have shot on these and they do well. They are a bit heavy to install.
