Possible cp/cabinet covering alternative... [pics!]
<< < (3/10) > >>
jginiso:
Do you think this could be effectively used on the rest of the cab as an alternative to painting?
Wade:
Since I still haven't come up with a good graphic design for my CP this stuff is looking pretty attractive... should look better than my plain black paint on my CP!

I've been having constant problems with my T-molding on my CP since my slot was too wide.  Then I tried glueing the molding in with hot glue, as some suggested.  This sortof worked but the molding is obviously loose in certain spots.  I need to re-do it, again.  I'm wondering if folding the excess of this vinyl down into the t-molding slot would make the molding fit tightly enough?  Hmm...

I'm also curious if this could be used as a painting alternative... Oscar, any chance you could take two small samples, and try to place them side-by-side on a piece of wood to show how the seam looks? If not, that's cool... I'll just order some myself and post the pictures. In like a month! :)
OSCAR:
I see no reason why it couldn't used for the side panels, you just have to have a seam.  This is the best way I know of to make a seam without just trying to line up the edges, perhaps someone else has a better suggestion:

Put down one piece and then overlap the adjoining piece by 1/4" ~ 1/2

Thanks a lot man, that really does look nice. When you make your cut, do you cut the part that lays over the top of the other sheet, then?
