I haven't got to that stage in life yet
That was a solar panel for a solar powered sex machine

I've been wondering (for a long time now) how your flocked dash is holding up. There are lots of videos now about how to repair and flock a dash, but very few do a long-term follow up. I know you did the repair and flock a long time ago, so would really like your input. Thanks.
I flocked the center console of my 1998 Alfa Romeo GTV. The center console on there cars was notoriously garbage and would crack or disintegrate regularly.
I custom molded a piece to fit and flocked it. It was great over the last 4 years (sold the car this summer), only issue was a coffee stain I got on it, which was very tedious to clean up because of the material.
I have used this in some small woodworking projects like lining the drawer in a small jewelry box. The method I used to glue down the flocking is paint that is very close to the color of the flocking. This allows the paint to hide any spots you may have missed with the flocking. Nice job!!!!
I'll be doing this to my 1979 Dodge van. This does look amazing, i love the result. Thank you for this video.
Is it easy to clean? Seems like it would want to stay dirty.
one of the best Cinematic vids for e30s ive seen well done boys
Mother of All Flockers. You Flockers have given me some really good ideas for my 78 Honda. I wont be flocking it, that shit looks like a giant dust magnet and i am keeping the car, But it will be of some type cover that can be taken care of awesomely.
YES! So glad that you were able to restore some of your old content!
"Flocking the Dash" sounds like a euphemism for something I can't quite put my finger on.
when she won't swallow, you flock the dash!
That dash is all flocked up!
Good job it was worth all the preparation 👍
Guys, you did a killer job.
I’m glade you have re-uploaded your videos
Thats one nice flocking dash dude!
Thank you so much! Please upload the rest of the E30 videos. I just got my hands on one and I'm about to do a ton of work on it, I need your wisdom. Prost!
Good job, for quality cars, quality treatments ...
You video popped up and im not sure why, but I enjoyed watching it. I am currently restoring an 87 Buick Grand National, maybe one day Ill have to flock my dash. haha Never even heard of that before this video. Thanks for he share!
This is a very interesting process.
Flockin amazin
Nice flockin' job!
I flocked all of the interior metal panels in the back of my VW T4 camper. Given that it was such an extensive area to cover I didn’t bother using the glue supplied with the kit. Instead I used a brand of metal paint who’s name I shouldn’t advertise but I know that you know it’s Hammerite. I applied it with an imperialist 2” brush. Because the consistency of the paint is a bit thicker than the glue it laid down nice and flat without noticeable brush strokes. This gave me a working window of around 3 hours to apply the flock. As the paint dried it locked in the flock in as well as any glue. Just a handy alternative if you’re worried about application time constraints.
Σπύρος Πιπέρης don’t get it too dirty you can’t really clean it
Great Idea! Thank You.
Looks dope AF fellas
Legend has it, the respirators got lost in the mail.
Very relevant at the moment haha.
I miss you guys
The work is very good broo !!! And that too recommend the way in my workshop in singaraja bali
I would have done it in sections so that I wouldn’t have to hurry before the glue dries. That way you could apply the material with confidantes and ease. Good job though boys!👍🏻
vin tags are made with an extremly soft metal and have special rivits....it can be done but it is really easy to damage or ruin them.
might be easier just to mask off that area
they recommend you first fill the crack with the flexible plastic fiber rods using a plastic welder then using the padded dash filler. it is different then other body fillers as it is a flexible filler. The flocking came out looking good though great job!
awesome camera work!
Nice look, next time put painters plastic to catch the rayon for later repairs or touch-ups. I'm doing this to a dash cap so I won't have to remove the dash. Good work
Damn nice DIY.
quality content!
About time lol. Miss videos
Mad video looks dope
Couple suggestions,
1, face and eye protection.
2, keep a shop vac close so you can suck that "build up material" out of the way as you sand. I found that if i gave a good 3 minutes of sanding 30 seconds of vacum helped me not over sand and stay pretty even. Its easy to not realize how far down youve sanded if you dont get the sandy material out of the way the entire time.
great vid i appreciate the help.
Cut the corner off of a ziplock bag filled with bondo and pipe it in like cake icing. This helps with the excessive material build up. good job.
You don't wet sand body filler. Getting it wet causes it to swell and bubble. Body filler absorbs water very well.
Looks Mint, only one problem... I'm way to lazy to take my dashboard out.👍😎👍
it takes about 2h
not easy to make it out..😂😂😂🙂
@@stargas3328 and no idea how to install it back..
RIP lungs
I hope the got spare lungs lying around somewhere

Boys, we live in Salt Lake City, literally one of the most polluted cities in the USA... this, is the least of our worries
@@SaltCityEuros I can vouch. SLC in the winter is so bad.
nice job... But a tip for next time... Try using a smooth tile for mixing body filler on... Cleans off allot easier, mixes better and is more stable to work with... My buddies laugh at the tile in my tool box.... But it works lekker
That was the first video i’ve seen on your channel, that’s when i fell in love with it 😁
I used to have that ring tone, years ago.
Nice.
Instead of the flocking material, I wonder what would happen if you used laser copier toner. You'd need to do it outdoors somewhere because it would make a mess but should result in a super flat black surface. Could also mix colored toners from a color laser printer.
Bondo? Doesn't whatever you fill the cracks with need to be able to expand and contract? If I thought this would last more than a year or two without cracking again, I would absolutely consider doing this on my e28.
Meet the flockers
How's the maintenance of this dash? I repainted my IS300 dashboard after repairing it's sticky problem and it's hard to maintain - lots of dust settling and staying on the dash even after wiping multiple times
Do you have a video where the dash is featured inside the car? Looking forward to seeing that...
I want to see that too
To make the job a little quicker/easier I've used dash covers/caps to cover nasty 3 & 5 series Bemmers in the past. Inexpensive and look the part. BTW nice looking finish guys
How long it took for new cracks to come up again?
Is there a way to screw up on flocking ? Also how do you know if you have flocked evenly ?
How durable is the finish and how does it feel to the touch? Thanks
How does it wear, can it be cleaned??
Is that bondo what you aply on it? Thank you.
Electro static flocking produces a far better result. You can use a scented / flavoured additive in the clue to lesson the smell of clue. Prep work takes longer due to attacking aluminium foil the the rear of the panel to earth it to the high voltage generator
What glue do they use on the dashfor electrostatic flocking?
Great video, very encouraging can you post a link of where to get the kit?
Are you really that lazy that you can't be arsed to search Google for it?
I have a grey dashboard, and would like to flock it black. Will the grey be noticeable after the black flock is applied?
Basic materials found below??
Were you buying supplies?
Interesting army green container...
u mix the body filler with.....?
How many bags did you use?
if you touch it once cured will you leave finger prints or marks? and how do you clean it
I remember some other video where someone flocked their dash and mentioned that you can just clean it with wet wipes and that you don't really leave any marks, but don't rely on me lol
once it is cured, you can touch it how much you want without any marks. For cleaning use wet fabric (not paper towel, it leaves its pieces on the surface) and just clean it. ;)
do all the Bondo work and then instead use bed liner spray
How long can expect this to last?
acetone on vinyl causes extreme shrinkage and even more cracking.. likely many of the cracks you thought you missed were actually cracks you created..
I must have read the description wrong. Well I’m going to xvids this is must certainly not what I was looking for.
Hello. this effect was incredible. I would like to know what material you used and the quantity?
Are you gonna post all the vids on the e30 touring? Thinking about getting one myself
Im going to post what I was able to recover...so not everything, just a couple :(
This is so sad :(((
Salt City Euros hope you can still post the videos with engine swaps, very informative
Ich kann es immer noch nicht fassen, dass UA-cam einfach deinen alten Kanal inklusive dem Inhalt gelöscht hat. Die ganze harte Arbeit, die von denen zerstört wurde, einfach ein Haufen Vollidioten! Finde es trotzdem schön, dass du wieder da bist und weitermachst. :-)
Can you use bondo instead
You need a staic electicity application tool
I had a cracked E30 dash. Found a nice one in the JY and pulled it. Took me 6 hours to R&R. A day in the sun and the "new" dash cracked. 😪
whats the differences between Nylon and Rayon flock ??
Where’s the link to the kit ? I only see the link to shirts.
Awesome work, bro whats that black spray you did after painting ?
Where did you but the kit?
How we can see in the car ?and what did u used , text pls what is it (inside of yellow box ) need details and wanna see in the car
At least keep it real. U forgot to do those 2 cracks. Cause it came good actually. But 2 lol spots. No biggie great job. I'm bout to wrap my interior dash.door panels. Center counsel. Back panels in Alcantara black fabric like the ZL-1'S. and after I cut the pieces to fit I'm going to have SS. embroidered on the dash piece and INKMAN1108. on the door panels. I'll send pics. Great job. Huge believer in DIY jobs. I don't let no one touch my cars no matter the job. Certified mechanic (30+ yrs) certified autobody.
Great video but I would have put some sound dampening under the dashboard
Boostedboiz checking in
Yeah i'm only here because i had no clue what flocking was and he wants to flock the MR2's dash
What was the song at 7:21? Sounds familiar but i cant shazam it, and the link you have for it doesnt work. Thanks!
I did something similar but I used normal body filler and it has cracked after about 6 months in the sun. I might try it with the padded dash filler and see if that stops it from cracking
You used body filler to repair padded dashboard? Did your brain stop working from the heat?
What's the song playing at 8:42? I can't get it out of my head now.
can anybody tell how such a material fills tactilely? like some sort of a velour?
How durable is this?
Its a beautiful project and nice results,thanks!
(Sorry guys... not good flocking your lungs... please...
Hugs.
You can tell me the materials list?
This is not harmful at all
Me: I'm tired, I'm going to bed.
UA-cam: Na bro. Watch some people do shit you've never heard of to a dashboard.
what the names of the products
And a spray gun for adhesive.
Пластиковые трещины сплавлять нужно тем же пластиком (пруток) с двух сторон с помощью горячего воздуха ~350° с поперечной заклепкой пластиковым прутком и будет вам счастье
0:00 "What is this stupid tuner shit they're doing"
11:01 "I'm doing this to my Camaro"
Where is the link to the product
Wow👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🎆🎆
What THE FLOCK !!!!
It's 2020 how did it hold up ?
Can someone please tell me the name of the second song.
My dude you had to prime that bondo spots and wet sand the primer then apply the glue and flock
A golf ball is approximately 3 tablespoons. so measure that and use the plastic card to mix. Geeeeesh.
It's called "Spachtel" here in Germany :P
great job guys, I like it a lot
