It is advised not to sand polypropylene, I know, I was skeptical at first as it goes against everything we're taught about bonding. But I've had multiple conversations over the 14 years I've been doing this with 3M to best approach this substrate. The problem is the plastic itself, I go into a...

Good evening all, I’m looking at doing my door cards to try and get away from the van look in the front, has anyone done the door cards in alacantara or any other fabric.

I am now at the point where I am going to get my front seats re trimmed. I have been repeatedly looking through the leather seats thread. Loads of awesome seats there and great inspiration. However I am struggling to choose the materials to use. My thoughts are leather/alcantara as this gives...

Hi everyone. Newby here just trying to get ideas for interior fabric etc. For my new conversion; leather, alcantara or synthetic leather. I’ve heard that leather gets hot in the summer (RIB bed) and that alcantara which is on the other half’s Tiguan is hard to clean. The synthetic stuff seems to...

Question for those who've retrimmed their own with the imitation suede (Milano/alcantara). Did you cover them with the fabric direct or did you put a layer of foam underneath to even out the surface?
