I am going to call some old friends at Car Audio mag and AS&S, and Auto Trimmer

It is a solid technique, and would help a lot of folks.

Painting is easy, it's the prep work that counts.

Your local paint store will be glad to help you with your questions.

Different paint systems mix in different ways and in different ratios.

Most times the mixing instructions are on the label.
If you have a little extra cash, go to the paint store and buy yourself a quart or so of a decent quality paint, reducer and clear.
Then try some test panels.

BUT!!!!!!

Be sure to read the MSDS Sheets! That stuff is toxic and can cause health problems later on in life.
Respirators and gloves are a must have!!!

I have been reading this for awhile, I was wondering if you can use standard Weldwood contant cement, rather than landau, also can landau be brushed rather than sprayed, I only have airbrush for scale models, do it would not be suitable

thank you very much in advance,

I've been following this post also and am trying Z's method of removing fabric with MEK, the problem is the landau cement doesn't want to stay stuck on the vinyl where there is any tension on the vinyl. The cement releases from the vinyl it seems because there is no material to stay stuck to. Any ideas why it's not adhering to the vinyl? I'm am using a heat gun to dry the landau adhesive to the vinyl. I'm also using forms to hold in place. Thanks, any help appreciated.
