Excellent. The title was exactly what I was looking for. I’m upholstering my pedalboard case, if it looks half as good as this I’ll be happy. Thank you for uploading!
One thing a would do is give a little overlap for shrinkage because it does
nice! enjoy watching a craftsman who doesn't feel the need to be a "personality!"
Merci \thank you i know a Mike Ward and really funny guy c’est tu lui?
Nice to see all them hood strings hangin' about, absorbin' all the adhesive
Beautiful job!
Thank you!
OMG thanks so much for showing this iam wraping a few mini heads and have never done this before
Make sure you overlap the tolex 1/2 inch witch i didn’t do with this one and shinked and now i have a gag
damn nice job my dude
Thank you very much !!
Looks great man! I have a question tho. Do you feel that it would’ve been easier to apply the back first, using the same method you used for the sides, and then fold the sides around it? Or was your plan to use the back tolex to cover the overlap from the sides?
Is that 77 spray?
how has the adhesive held up? I had an absolute glue failure using spray adhesive on my project.
It held good but shrank a bit ,next time i will leave a little overlap
I have a problem with the corner seams opening up over time. No tolex kid loose, gust the gap. Think I’ll try a small over lap.
indeed mine did that too but i seams that certain tolex does shrink more than others , i will be doing this as well small overlap
Where do you get your black grill cloth. Need some for a amplifier
i get it here , sorry for the delay :) nextgenguitars.ca/categories/cab-case-parts/tolex-tweed.html
What is the touch-up adhesive you apply here with the small brush?
It is gorilla superglue
@@TheRoots72 ah... ok. Thanks! I've tried patching overlaps with contact cement and it's frustrating at best! ps: in places where seams tend to shrink, I paint all those areas black before I begin. If it does separate later it's not so glaring.
I got a question, how do you spray that adhesive without it making a sticky mess beyond the folds of the seames
i have a 3M Adhesive Remover or a piece of cardboard
What tools should I need for the job
The roller i use bought it for Home Depot store in the floor department used for wall paper and vinyl floors a scrapper to push in the inside corners, a olfa knife with new blade , a metal ruler and measuring tape is pretty much all you need for tools
What kind of glue is it? What brand? I mean glue in spray can.
I used the spray can 3M 77 spray adhesive and on the seems gorilla glue but next time i
Will do a little overlap for shrinkage because it did open and peeled a little at some place
Great video. What spray adhesive did you use and also do you get any shrinkage with this adhesive?
I use the 3M number 77 spray and no shrinkage thanks for the comment really appreciated! :)
@@TheRoots72 thanks again for the reply! Legend
After a year it did shrink a little at some spots
@@TheRoots72 thanks for confirming that :)
If I send you guys a custom wood amp enclosure and roll of tolex could you wrap it for me?
I could do it for sure but it will cost lots for shipping i guess
@@TheRoots72 let’s talk, do you have an email or Instagram we can chat through?
Where can I purchase Tolex?
Ebay or Amazon as some but i do get mine from Next Gen Musical LTD.
Why is the plywood painted ?
I find the tolex bonds better and glue don’t seeps in plywood as much so it easier to remove years later to change tolex that’s why i use primer on the wood
@@TheRoots72 ah yes, good idea !!! What paint to use ??
I use rustolium 2x wood primer
Check in description for details it’s all there :)
OK so what you need to do is reveal what spray adhesive you are using as that little detail matters very much and you just left it out like it's some kind of common knowledge. It isn't. If it's contact cement or similar, you need to mention that both mating surfaces of the substrate should be sprayed not just one surface. You should also mention to wait a few minutes for the adhesive to tack up before applying the tolex to the cab. So next time maybe you should do some talking. This is an incomplete tutorial. Grade - C
thanks for the comment, if you check the description i have some details of what i used for this project
How 'bout a little gratitude for posting this tutorial instead of all the kvetching. Geez. Grade for the pointless criticism - F
@@TheDesern23 A+ for the gratitude ;)
He makes it very clear you coat both sides. Repeatedly. Even shows you how long to wait. Then every product used is in the video description... your grade is F- for attention, A+ for being a jackass.
