3:16 every factory panel has the insert board on the back " Top side" of the metal, its why the metal is punched out, its holding the board lol, it wasn't placed wrong. R.E.M did a decent job with these.
My 86 mustang carpeted area on the bottom of the door panel is stabled completely through the door panel including the insulation. Any suggestion on how to proceed?
Did you purchase them that way? If so, reach out to our customer care team with pictures. Without seeing what's going on, diagnosing a situation through UA-cam isn't easy. Thanks for understanding. -Landan lmr.com/contact
A good, off-the-shelf acrylic lacquer clear coat will help add a layer of protection to the board. Any clear coat would work; flat, stain, or gloss. Several coats will be needed since the first few coats will be absorbed into the material. -Landan
@@latemodelrestoration So if I go into my local box store or hardware store and ask for 'General' staples, they going to ask whats my application. I say reworking door panels on a fox body mustang. At that point I get a dumb look, which is the same one that I'm giving you now. Staples come in specific lengths / types for different applications. I've seen it asked here several times already. So can someone please advise what length (ex.. 1/4 inch, 3/8, 5/16.., 6mm, 8mm, ...etc ) and the type of staple (ex.. T50, series 13, or series 53 ..or something else) . There is a standard office staple such as Bostitch SB10 staples, which are 1/4 inch. These are for stapling paper not fabric to pressboard or aluminum. There is also a standard upholstery staple that's normally 3/8 inch. So some details as to what was used in the video would be helpful. Thanks
So I did my door panels and used an Arrow brand JT27 stapler and Arrow JT21 1/4" staples which do not go through the board. One additional thing I did to the area where they staple the new board to the aluminum part, was cover this entire seam with foil duct tape, which really helps to ensure these 2 stay together.
Thanks for the comment. I could see where the title could cause some confusion. Jay does say in the intro that the procedure being shown in the video is applicable for the stated year range of a Fox Body Mustang. -Landan
Not a bad job at all, thank you LMR!
🙌🙌
Hey I really enjoyed this video but I was just wondering what kind of staples did you use the size and what kind of staple gun

It was wrong and when they installed the new board they placed it correctly
What staples and gun did you use. Smallest staples I can find stick through on the edges

Bring back Landan 🤘
Landan still does video! Both Jay and Landan do installs and reviews on products here at LMR!
Is there anything you can spray on the board to make it any stronger or water resistant?
A good, off-the-shelf acrylic lacquer clear coat will help add a layer of protection to the board. Any clear coat would work; flat, stain, or gloss. Several coats will be needed since the first few coats will be absorbed into the material. -Landan
So does the backing board go on top or under the metal piece??
Under the metal piece, between the metal and vinyl material.
The backing board I ordered and received is not fitting in the vinyl am I doing somthing wrong? The new board just simply seems way to big

Hi Angel, we used a general staple that you can get from your local office or hardware store.
