<p style=”text-align: left;”>Doors done. In for the night.</p>
frizParticipantI would be leary of anyone charging less. Proper materials and the knowledge to apply them does not come cheap. I chose varnish because I didn’t want to have to get a shop involved if I needed future repairs.
frizParticipantNext will be the doors and the footwell. Honestly the only reason I felt comfortable tackling this job was because I was already familiar with the materials. I used to build RC planes out of this foam and spray glue.
frizParticipantThis is as far as I could get with the fabric I had.
frizParticipantfrizParticipantI can see it fine.
frizParticipantGetting started. I have a wedding to go to this afternoon. Dont know when I will be back on task.
frizParticipantHere we go.
frizParticipantYes
frizParticipantFake suede, check. 1/4 inch foam, check. Spray adhesive, check. Passed adhesive test, check. I’ll keep you all posted.
frizParticipantHere is where mine ended up. Still has shape to it.
frizParticipantI think this was an area that I drilled some extra holes to pull the parts together.
frizParticipantAround post 69 is a photo dump that may help you. This is my build thread in TNTTT.
frizParticipantI remember having issues in the rear corners also. I had one side that was too sharp in tha angle but was able to force it back in shape when I dropped the floor in. Another thing you can try is applying a little heat to your seam to relax the resin a little. Heat will make it temporarily pliable again. I hope this helps. Dont get discouraged. It will all come together eventually. The cool thing about this process is that it is very forgiving. Yes, you can always get the saw out and do over.
Cheers
frizParticipantNice!
