Flocking Dash Boards

[Muttley1]

Hi all.
I have a 172 ph1 and I am thinking of flocking the top of the dash, does anybody have any pics of this so I can get an idea of what it looks like!

Cheers
Matt

Would look pretty good IMO but it would have to be in a similar blue to that on the seats.

got ya! Cheers, think I'll be doing that, I'm looking at fitting a satnav where the clock is, could be fun!

Mine was a non airbag dash top from a lesser model. The airbag is part of the dash so you will need to get this flocked too or remove it like I did.

Full pics here......

Ive sold it now, coz I wasnt happy with the finish

 

[Muttley1]

That's exactly the sort of thing I'm planning! Thanks for the pics, would the airbag still work properly having been flocked?

What was wrong with the finish on yours if you don't mind me asking?

Cheers

it was patchy in places and some of it fell off. Ive seen some other companys work since and id go elsewhere next time for sure.

Im not sure about the air bag thing

What does flocking involve? How does it work?

 

[Jay Payne]

Glue and some fluff I think

 

[iimushroomzii]

cotton wool balls and pritt stick? Home made flocking!

 

[Jay Payne]

Fuzzy felt and pritt stick? Home made flocking!

Who would you go for mate? Heard good things about flock-it and central blast cleaning...

 

[Muttley1]

[Jay Payne]

I was chatting to an MG owner at Oulton park and he had his done by a company called 'Clever flockers' very good quality work. Ive heard 'flock it' are good but not seen their work

you could always hive us a shout, done quite a few 172 dash tops, we use eletrostatic equipment, flocking is all we do, its not a spin of from garage work to earn extra pennies, all our work is completed in a secial dedicated clean room.
