It was in good shape other than two holes in the rear lower corners where "stuff", i guessed, rubbed their way through after 40 years of moving around. My solution there was to apply duct tape to the inside, and fill the holes from the outside with a concoction of shredded cardboard (used a surform tool) mixed with carpenter's glue.
Here's where I want your ideas...what can I apply to the inside to cover the repairs, and restore a decent appearance. Paint? upholster with felt or something? Some kinda spray on flocking? |

Flock!
To do a good flocking job, ya need the flocking gun to put down the flocking stuff... Seriously, a bag and flock is ugly with flock glued down haphazardly.... think fiberglass mat appearance and feel... Now a flocking gun sprays the flock out in an airstream and the little flockers actually line up in the airflow and land end first in the sticky paint... think soft fuzzy petable flocking.... Get the flocking gun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) |
