I know this has been done before, but Wussmonster and I have found a better method. take a look and tell us what you think

 

[wussmonster]

my fingers still fuckin hurt from all that razor-blading. the hair-dryer PWNS!

 

[go240]

nice, too bad about the holes - i'm sure there's a way to conceal them though

spackle? clay? bondo? in the end you could try so many different things to fill in the holes. after seeing this i am now tempted to remove that cloth crap from my car..... now if only i knew where a hair dryer would be located in this house.

 

[lsd2way]

I wonder if anyone has a write-up as to using another type of material(carpet) to put back on?

 

[TomTomTuning]

i didnt even have to apply heat or, use a razor..

used a flat head, to get a corner pelled, then justed tugging away
then used googone to clean up some glue (not much)

30mins later..

 

[TomTomTuning]

U can get some sort of like (leather) repair for the holes..
They make vinyl repair kits

but i dont mind the holes.. i could really care less, it looks so much better then the carpet that was on there..

 

[wrx7]

was it hot out when you did yours? I am in Oregon(and it's freakin cold right now), and tried to just pull on it .. and what I got was what you saw on the blue one.. it took the better part of 3 hrs to get all of it off.

 

[TomTomTuning]

Not really hot, but it was spring.. Normal temperature..

 

[wussmonster]

yeah the heat owned that paste crap.

I've never had to use a heat gun/hair dryer to get the cloth off either of my s13's door panels, just sat down and started peeling and they came off no problem...

 

[Thunderchicken]

I waited to do mine until the middle of last summer. Hot days with the windows closed pwns that door fabric. Heat via hairdryer, heat gun (low), or a hot day is the way to go with this stuff.

Good write-up.

 

[silviaks2nr]

Is there foam stuff under there on the s13 uphoulstry? I didnt use a hair drier and it left this yellow foam residue. I got most of it off with a pressure washer but some goo gone will be necessary. Also, there are no holes for us s14 guys. maybe i will use a hair drier for the passenger side.

 

[cj1977]

Pretty dang spiffy.

 

[Razo-E]

both of mine peeled right off *phew*, holes suck but oh well..

i also need to go gone the glue residue, ill probably do it tomororw.

 

[Arsenal240sx]

mine peeled off like nothing..no heat applied took maybe 5 minutes

 

[TooMuchPeso]

mine did too
is there any ideas how to do glove box besides painting the cloth

 

[wrx7]

it has that same shitty stuff the s14 guys where talkign about.. that's why I just painted it

 

[blackbeltx]

I picked up a spare glove box cover from the junkyard and tried everything I could to get it off. I ripped the carpet off, and acetoned it, I think I tried goo gone, and break clean. The only thing I can think of is to sand it smooth, prime it and paint it.

 

[wussmonster]

there's a diy on here of a guy that wrapped his glovebox in vinyl. looks really good too. search it up.
