Ferrari Mailing List: Re: carpet behind seats ('81 308)

[Bruce Hill (bruce.hill]

Get some 3M Hi-Strength 90 Spray Adhesive. Spray it on both pieces (wall and carpet), let it tack up for 10 minutes then press into place. I've used this on the interior of my airplane and it is holding up well on the soundproofing and carpeting. The regular 3M Super 77 Spray Adhesive is not as strong.

Guys,

I did this job on my 328 and 400i years ago. You normally use commercial or industrial spray glue (contact glue) from an aerosol can. Very common to get over here from auto supply stores. It's made for car trimming. For most car trimming supplies you can check out Woolies here I the UK who are the standard for interior car trim. I know that may not help you guys in the USA causing shipping costs can be high but at least the exchange rate is good for you right now!

I’d also be interested in hearing what you guys come up with. The hood liner in my TR has been falling off for a year or two. It has the same ancient foam under it. Like Peter, I’ve tried gluing it back, but the foam residue just keeps separating. I can take it all the way off and clean the foam remnants off the underside of the hood, but I don’t know if I can “restore” the original fabric and re-use it, and I don’t really know how to get it properly glued under the metal cross braces under the hood, which is a little harder than the carpet problem.

Does it look like the carpet would have had a thin layer of foam behind it? This is happening to the trunk carpets on my GT4, especially the two panels underneath the trunk lid.

 

No matter what I've tried, it still peels off and the culprit is that degrading layer of foam (or whatever else it is), nothing seems to want to stick to it. I've tried to scrape as much of it off as possible (near the edges where it's peeling off), but it looks like I need to completely remove the carpets and re-glue.

 

I'd like to hear suggestions as to what glue to use.

 

Peter

My 'wall carpet' behind the seats is falling off. I guess the glue has dried out. And I noticed the material between the carpet and the fire wall is also loose. It looks like I need to take the 2 seatbelts screws off to take the carpet off. Has anybody done this before ? How about the black board behind the seats, how do I take that off. I want to paint it or do something to get it black again. The sun has done some damage to it. It's pretty greyish now.
