Vinyl is hanging.




I don't want to take apart the dash to glue it and have it fall off later.

Sooooo...

What glue to use and what recommendations do you have for installing?



Measure twice. Cut once.

Thanks,

Pete

i thought you were referring to the face...for the vinyl facing porsche used a thin foam tape with adhesive on both sides. the tape is about 1/4"wide. picture is from the 75'. the 70' has remnants of the tape that was under wood trim face pieces i took off. a local auto body supply may have a similar product. if you can't find it there try a hobby/arts and craft store. if you use spray adhesive it's gonna be permanent and you'll destroy it if you ever have to remove it.

I have done several of these and use a thin closed cell foam to pad the panel before placing material on it. I use 3-M glue and have been happy with it.

I have the foam for sale as well at the Basket weave material. PM for details
