Default Started Flocking my Interior

Have started flocking the interior of my car.

The top of the dash in black is still to be done (came in the car when i got it and i am not happy with the quality of the work) but so far i've done the bottom dash, centre console and door cards.

Sorry for the photo's i'm no expert the grey is all the same colour just looks different with the light /camera combo for some reason.

I'm already thinking of scrapping the black and going darker grey for the top half.

Please let me know what you think.

I'm thinking of doing this on my newage... Black on top and dark grey on lower dash... Will keep an eye on this thread? Are you doing it yourself or getting it done from a company?

my mate has just started doing this and we are doing some of mine this weekend. how hard was it to do the doors with the material/fabric on them already?

and how are you finding the application. is it going on even with no dry spots?

material is easy tricks of the trade.

no problem with application don't really miss any spots as i spray the glue to ensure even coat, then i purchased a proper industrial flocking machine to make sure it has a good finish.

we use a spray to apply the glue. but on one dash we did we found some dry spots where it didnt take properly. and yes we use the industrial machines as well. not the cheap crap you can buy

i just wondered how it applied to the soft foam/fabric on the doors.

we have done loads now and a few roof linings that we are really proud of.

Each to his own, but I do agree to some extent. I will be looking at the dash and extending down through the centre console. I have other plans for the doors

Do you have any prices, like I said above, dash and centre console(s) for a bugeye is what I'll be after late spring/early summer (after I pay off the current round of mod)
