Right guys looks like im going have to re-do some of my leather trim.

 

What is the best glue out there for sticking this stuff down?? Tryed evo stick but it still seems to stuggle with the heat with it being a black car and all that:yawn:

You can get trimmers spray adhesive. that works well :)

hmmm i tryed spray before and was really poor.

 

do you know of any brands?

3M Fastbond 10, comes in a 1tr tin. This is what our aircraft trimmers use for all interior adhesion applications, and used for my interior retrim. Best glue by-far, and is applied with a brush. You can "thin" it down with MEK or a similar thinner to aid spreading.

EVo Stick Instant contact adhesilve (the solvent version, which means its usually locked away in shops)

 

Comes in a can, requires brushing on. Dont get the non-solvent version, its crap.

i hear personal man glue is the best??? lmao

 

HAAAA, applying could leave you in a sticky situation though (*ahem*)

i hear personal man glue is the best??? lmao

 

group buy? :xxx:

Hey i used both evo stick spray glue and dunelm spray glue, i thought the dunelm stuff was better but my entire interior is now lifting so im going to get it done professionaly in alcantara :batman:

 

i trimmed using synthetic leather and it was my first time, at first it seemed to do the job but after a nice hot day it went gloopy and just lifted.

I used this specialist glue with no problems with the leather lifting.

Hahah i may have a 2nd attempt at my interior with that stuff :D it can only get better!!!

i used heavy duty carpet glue in a spray can, failing that corn flakes, milk and sugar. (ever rushed out the door in the morning, then had to try cleaning the damn bowl when you get home with dried on cornflakes, you need a pneumatic drill for that stuff)

Any attempts with the above adhesives or others where pics could be supplied :D need to get mine done before Xmas! :scared:

so is there a general conscenus what is the best glue for retrimming and were can ya get it

I used the evo stick multi purpose Impact instant contact adhesive as in post 10, its in a red tin with a silver top, ive had no problems. Any local hardware store, B&Q only seem to do the small tins, but to do all the panels for the interior i used 2x 500ml tins.

3M Fastbond 10.........FTW.
