Look in your local yellow pages for floor-covering installation supplier. I
routinely buy all my metals at such a place because they come in 12 foot
lengths. 12 foot cost about $2 more than a 3 foot one at the box stores.
The only gottcha is that the nails are sold separately. Still a great buy
but I am still working on using up that first 100 pak of nails.
All the ones I have seen are pre-drilled. I can't guess about the colors.
