Carpet to console adhesive ??

[hunt2elk]

What type of glue are you guys using to attach your new carpet to a console? I was planning on using some contact cement, but it doesn't stick to the console body. There must be something out there made for this?

Just use the yellow heavy duty spray on adhesive. Just do like it says on the can. It is made by 3M Good Luck Ronnie

Is that the 3M 77 super adhesive? I used that on the small piece of carpet to the metal on the rear of the console. It seems to have stuck fairly well, but it is not dry after sitting overnight and could be pulled apart. Maybe I sprayed it on to thick?

You have to spray the console and the back of the carpet and let it dry some before you put them together. It says on the can how long before putting it together. It will work if done right. Ronnie

Thanks - I will give it a try.

Super 77 is good stuff, just like okie said, both sides need to sprayed and then it needs some flash time. Patience works well too.

I use clear silicone...any mess is easy to remove when dry. Takes a bit to dry but works well about anywhere but you can't paint it if needed
