Adhesive on Control Panel overlay from mamemarquees
Sylentwulf:
I'm at the point where I'm putting th CPO on my CP, and it is just simply NOT sticking. I've had around 100 pounds of even level weight on it for about 4 hours hoping it would stick, and just got home, took the weight off, and while I haven't tried it, I know for a fact I could pull this thing off with one hand, maybe even just 2 fingers.
Any ideas/thoughts? It's kinda humid out today, should I just leave the weight on overnight? I REALLY don't think that's the problem, but I'll try it anyways. I cut out one button hole (pie cut) and it immediately bubbled up around the cut, no adhesion at all. I can feel the adhesive on the edges that aren't on the CP, and while they ARE sticky, it's not exactly what I was hoping for, feels more like scoth or masking tape if that.

If it's not on there good by tomorrow morning, I'm gonna go buy some adhesive at home depot and get it on there PERMANENTLY. Any suggestions on what to buy? It's going to be stuck to primed and single-coat painted MDF.

3m spray glue.
It looks like a spray paint can. Just make sure you dont over do it or it wont ever dry.

Yep. I used ther 3m Spary Glue and the thing wont move. Besure you properly position the CP.. as you won't be able to lift/move the CP once you've positioned it.
Sylentwulf:
OK, any suggestions on how to use this besides don't spray too much?
I've done great on the entire rest of the cab, but destroying my CP and CPO in one fell swoop because I didn't know how to use spray adhesive frankly scares the crap out of me.
