[QUOTE="Turd Ferguson, post: 469837, member: 24527"] I also started the vinyl process. My plan is to vinyl the console, the main floor, and all vertical surfaces inside the console area. The front and rear decks will get carpet. The only thing left to do is the floor, and then I can begin assembling these pieces. The vinyl and glue is a real pain to work with. This was my first time doing something like this, and it really tested my patience. I used Marideck Vinyl in Stone Grey. 34 Mil for all the vertical panels as well as the console, and 80 Mil for the floor. I used Marideck’s MD-102 glue, which is pretty much contact cement. Has a bit of a learning curve, tacks quick, and is very unforgiving. Especially in the cold, we did this in 50 degree temps. Not ideal, but can’t halt progress because of the seasons. If anybody has any questions regarding this process, please ask. I am by no means an expert but I will do what I can to help. I’ll also take some closeups of how it looks. Overall I’m extremely pleased with how it looks so far. The color is great and it came out looking very clean for a first timer! Here’s a shot encompassing the 4 panels we did. I’ll get some closeups once they floor is done and everything is installed! [ATTACH type="full" alt="6DE5E37F-D4A3-4878-9F24-5B290AC483C2.jpeg"]103299._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
