brodie_83 Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 I bought a little container of Ken's Kustom Fuzzy Fur and don't get me wrong, I like the stuff. It's good for carpeting...but I want to get some flocking to do seats to make them look like cloth, and Ken's flocking isn't fine enough for upholstery. Anyone know of something? Thanks!
Skydime Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 (edited) Dave can feel free to correct me if I am wrong but, the product he is talking about is billed as flocking powder instead of just flocking. I think it is billed that way because it is finer as Brodie requested. I use embossing powder as well for a lot of applications where flocking isn't appropriate.. Edited August 30, 2011 by Skydime
Guest Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 Forget the flocking and use baking soda. It's as fine as it gets. Same process as flocking,but you'll want to spray a coat of primer over it if painting with enamel or paint it with laquer. Testors also makes a nice fabric spray that is very convincing. Here's an interior sprayed with the fabric spray Here's an interior I used baking soda on.
Guest Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 Here's a better photo that shows the texture of the fabric spray. I tried to edit and add it to my previous post,but no luck. The fabric spray comes in red,blue,black,gray and tan.
Skydime Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 Baking soda? I've never heard that one until now. Very resourceful!
1320wayne Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 I have to agree with Dave as I have tried the Martha Stewart line and it works great. Of course, no matter which type of flocking you use a lot of how it looks is how you apply it as well.
brodie_83 Posted August 30, 2011 Author Posted August 30, 2011 I went to my local Michael's and they said they have no such thing as flocking...wtf?
Kit Basher Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 I went to my local Michael's and they said they have no such thing as flocking...wtf? You went to Michaels and they had no flocking clue? There's a shocker!
