I'm now about to start covering my door cards and walls with vinyl. I've just gotta wait for j & s upholstery to send me the materials.
I'm not sure which spray glue to use on the door cards
I used some carpet and upholstery glue from local company's before and the were crap
Any idears
I can not have these glues fail on me cos I'm gonna be spending time and money on getting these done right and I don't won't them falling apart
 
Ask the peeps who are supplying the vinyl, they'll prob be able to recommend what's best, but when using spray glues etc always test it on a cut off to make sure it sticks, it doesn't bleed through, or react with the material

:D
 
I used this glue on my door cards from megavan mats on Fleebay. Spray both sides, leave a few mins and then stick..!! Does exactly that sticks them together a treat..!! 8)

spray on contact, but high temp stuff i have used ordinary in the past and on a hot days the inside of the bus gets to about a zillion degrees, and stuff slides off, would hate for you to start getting peeling or bubbleing on yer vinyl
 
Wherever possible, I would stretch and fold the vinyl over the edge of the door cards and staple from the back ( check staple length first ;) ) as well as glueing .

As gwar72 says, spray glue on both sides and leave to go 'tacky ' .

I lay my fabric in place on top of the card, then fold back half of the fabric and apply glue and let it go tacky , then spread fabric in place and smooth it out .
Repeat procedure for the other half of the panel. I do this as some adhesives are not moveable if you don't get your fabric in the right place first time round !!

Good luck
 
Thanks for your idears
I'll speak to trim shack and see what they can supply me
If there stuff ain't super sticky I'll try some of that stuff from eBay
