Whats up SL? well I sueded my door panels about a month ago with suede and they cam out beautiful. But now it's 1 month later and its starting to come loose from the doors.
I used 3M 77 spray glue does anyone know of any spray glue that is a 100% guarantee that it will hold up? Please leave links or names of the products.

Thanx

watching......

 

try elmers glue lol

 

i used the orange can of 3m adhesive it works well or the green can!

 

any pictures? anything? i need the best of teh best glue

 

DAP weldwood contact cement "high temp resistant"

OR

DAP weldwood high temp spray adhesive.

both can be purchased here. http://www.yourautotrim.com/glues.html

i live on LI and the weather is weird here,... hot, cold, hot, cold, rainy, dry, humid...in one day... and those are the only glues ive found that hold up quite well. all the 3M stuff ive tried has sucked.

 

Any pics of what you did?

 

i'm watching too

 

hmmm, guess ill trash the 3M crap ive got laying around in favor of some better stuff.

 

i used 3m80 and its fine but you need to spray very carefully and it may not hold up....either way im redoing my headliner

 

yeah, ill post up pics soon, hopefully tomorrow.
my camera is dead and tomorrow im starting my turbo install so ill be taking pics anyway.

yeah the weldwood is barely more pricey but the hold is solid.

 

 

You have prob been asked alot but how many yards to you buy for that, I am actually going to price some white micro suede out tomorrow. I'm just curious how much I should buy + extra

 

I did my door panels last weekend w/ 3M 77. By the next day a couple of parts came loose once it got hot outside. Made some calls and got 2 recommendations. DAP weldwood as previously mentioned and 3M general trim adhesive. I went w/ the 3M since I couldn't get the DAP locally. I still have to put the door panels back on tomorrow so I can't honestly say how well it will turn out but I'll keep everyone posted. I can say that it seemed like a much better product while I was using it.

Need4Bass05 - I bought 3 yds to do front/rear panels and armrest. I had about a 1/2 left over. You should be fine w/ that.

 

weldwood FTMFW Most will find out why it is better after 50K miles and there panels are coming loose, headliners are drooping

 

Any High temp upholstery glue works well for your headliner..

but in fact... its usually hard to find.. well.. at least in smaller quantities instead of the usual 5 gallon drums i buy it in...

yellowhoodie... if you want let me know... i can grab you some good stuff and bring it to the next SE meet...

 

for wrapping pannels in the car, i use a HVLP spray gun, and spray contact cement. you can buy a pint of it from walmart, and if you're careful apply it with a brush. Make sure you apply it to both surfaces though.

 

meant to post pictures but found out my battery in my camera is dead, that an an issue i ran into installing my turbo kit has taken up most of my time recently, ill take pics definitely tomorrow.

 

has anyone made a DIY for reupholsering the interior?
are there any threads that go into detail on how to do it?

thanks in advance for any and all help
