MotorCityFats13 Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 The gorilla glue didn't hold when I started stretching a shirt over it. I think I have to scuff the plastic maybe or find another glue. What do you guys use. I am using wooden dowel rods any craft store contact adhesive in a spray can works for me... I use either aleanas supper tacky spray from michaels or 3m 77.... i use anything that works on holding carpet to a box... just dont apply polyester resin to the glued area the heat makes the glue let go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need a better hold on that to get that to stay on. I used a can of that spray adhesive to hold the vinyl to the rear deck and that worked good for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

412Mark Posted September 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 The rear deck got its q-mat. And the rear deck in place. Just sitting there. I have to get the seat belts reinstalled before the rear deck is back in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

412Mark Posted September 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Two big fails for me. First time working with fiberglass. I tried it once with the resin and hardner I bought and it never dried for over a week. So I try it again with more and way more hardner. Only to find out the kit I bought had the wrong hardner with it. Now I have to rip off that fabric and start all over. The other pic is my headliner. I thought I could cover it with the same fabric as my rear deck. I was wrong. That vinyl is not stretchy enough and now has a ton of wrinkles so I am gonna rip it off and try a different fabric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412Mark Posted September 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Roof done and I am out of Q-Mat. I gotta buy some more for the doors. Now I am waiting for a more stretchable material for my headliner. I am now working on getting a box built. I am gonna have to build it in the trunk to get the airspace I need.
