Does the vinyl of the Backpad get glued (contact cement) to the backer board? The portion hidden behind the seat.
Mine is detached and floating off the backer board but is retained on the sides. Thanks, Sean |

@mepstein , What do you use to remove the 50-year-old residue from the first cementing? |

I don’t. Well, really it depends. Sometimes the old residue just brushes/scrapes off. I’ve hit some parts with a wire wheel. When I did new upholstery on my 914 seats, I just went right over the old. Worked perfectly. But I’m no upholsterer or expert on contact adhesive. I have found that most of the 3m stuff doesn’t have the hold that we’d expect, especially when it gets hot in the car. Weldwood comes in small and large cans and while pretty inexpensive, seems to be the go-to for a lot of contact adhesive needs. |
