Re: 1990 Lund Tyee 1650 Interior Overhaul
I applied the 88 adhesive to both surfaces 1. to be for sure, for sure 2. because it was still in the 90's here and the glue was drying almost as fast as I was brushing it on.
Speaking of the adhesive, you'll need a paint mixer for a drill like this one if your adhesive is anything like mine was.
Also be sure to get the rollers in my above post, I rerolled my pieces every day for 3 or for days checking for air bubbles and found a few... but was able to push them to a corner and push them out.
For wrapping odd shaped pieces, I cut the wrap into tabs like this.
A 2" tab will get you around most radii and you can adjust the size of them bigger or small according to the radius.
I was able to get away with 4" on this one.
Inside corners are a 45* angle from your inside corner to the corner of your wrap set-in like in the pic above.
Outside corners are a simple square notch aligning with the outside edges of your piece.
Speaking of wrapping, this piece was a little PITA. It's my console base.
I used the contact cement to wrap it with, because it was small, cut up, and I needed the instant bond.
If you wrap your edges with the 88 adhesive, you will need to staple it as you go.
If you wrap your edges with contact cement, be aware that contact cement dissolves/cuts the 88 adhesive and you need to stay away from it a little. The Nautolex vinyl will require 2 coats of contact cement because of it's porosity, and you can come back and staple it later.
