Fantastic video just properly dispose of the rag with the mineral spirts. That rag could spontaneously combust just from the sun shining on it. Mineral spirts are a good product
Great info thanks! Also I have a 2012 mustang and although my interior is black with white stripes on the seat it looks identical to your 2005. Nice car and nice video
Man, I'm one of those three-men people because I scoured the youtoobs and couldn't find anyone doing this with the premium interior (seam and pony). But, because I clicked a short about an upholstery prairie dog, I find out the mam with the answers was just right up the road the whole time. Thanks for the video, and I'm truly sorry about Rosie.
I'm confused regarding which adhesive you used. Did you use Weldwood Contact Adhesive, Weldwood Contact Cement, or Weldwood Landau Top & Trim HHR Solvent Type Spray Contact Adhesive? The Contact Adhesive is only sold in 1 gallon containers and is very expensive ($65.00). The Contact Cement can be purchsed in 1 quart containers, but cannot be adjusted once both sides are touched together so it would be difficult to use. The Weldwood Landau Top & Trim HHR Solvent Type Spray Contact Adhesive seems to allow some re-adjusting which is needed, but I'm not sure on the overall bond strength. Thanks
Hello Robert, I only use the Weldwood landau top contact adhesive for everything I do for the last 44 years, never had a problem. I would assume that any contact adhesive would work the same way. I never thought of it as rocket science, Hehe. Please keep liking and watching!
Hello Stacy, I am sorry to say that I do not know. I am not a Mustang guy. That is who you need to ask. I just do upholstery. Hehe. Please keep liking and watching!
With the contact cement you used and having done it outside I’m curious if there is a need for temperature difference that needs to be taken into account. I’m located in Dallas TX and will be trying to tackle this on soon and with summer around the corner it’s my only thought that the amount of heat will affect the speed of bonding with the contact cement
Hello 40, I am about 3 hours drive from you. I also experience the same weather. It is not the heat to worry about. I would do it on a dryer day instead of a humid day. Please keep liking and watching!
Hello Teb, You can always use a brush to apply the contact cement. Now really, stay away from any spray can glue, you will thank me later... Please keep liking and watching!
Hello Elco, Oh, no. Not thinner. Thinner will only thin it out and smear the contact adhesive and make a big mess. Only use Mineral spirits. th-cam.com/video/L-z0T-Z4_Uk/w-d-xo.html Please keep liking and watching!
Hello Te, I have never used Weldwood contact cement. I have only used Weldwood contact adhesive. Nothing better than this. PLease keep liking and watching!
That is what I used and it wont ever come off if you follow the directions-- it is a contact adhesive so ensure the glue has setup properly before you use a handheld roller to smooth it out. Then use a 1in paint scraper or smaller (I use the backside of a the blade on a folding utility knife but I am slightly experienced) to tuck the edges.
where do you live in which your local newspaper is in chinese? lol Have you run into any issues with the mineral spirits lifting the color out of the vinyl?
I took the easier route: I scraped everything off, gave it a rough sanding, then sprayed on about 10 coats of bedliner. Gives it an interesting texture, and it's NOT coming off. Ever.
@Old School Auto Upholstery Techniques Yes, I did see your entire video and paid close attention to removing all the old glue with mineral spirits... However, you did not address my question in regard to the foam backing fabric material which is also glued to the door panel... As I previously brought up, there was also a TH-cam video posted by Mongrel Motorsports that removes the fabric backing material by placing a flat-head screwdriver in the upper right corner, lifting up a section of the backing layer fabric by exposing the hard plastic of the door panel... He then begins to peel off the backing layer of fabric which then reveals the hard plastic of the door panel... So my question once again is this... Did you also peel off all the foam backing fabric material from the door panel after removing all the old glue with mineral spirits or did you just remove all the old glue... If you did not remove/peel off the remaining foam backing material fabric after removing all the old glue? I need to know one way or the other just to make certain that we're both on the same page... In the meantime, I also went ahead by attaching a link for the Mongrel Motorsports TH-cam video which shows his process for removing/peeling off the second layer of foam backing material from the door panel... Also, keep in mind that I'm not referring to the actual vinyl door panel insert itself, as I already have the vinyl insert removed from the door... th-cam.com/video/QLKvDPy7kTM/w-d-xo.html
Hello RMP, I removed the old vinyl. Stipped off all of the old glue. Glued on the new vinyl, duplicating the original application. It is that simple. Thanks for watching!
@@joshuawellwerts2078 The installer is located in Texas.... However, just keep in mind that he does NOT remove the felt backing material that is glued to the door panel... Unless the felt backing material is completely removed, it will only be a matter of time before the vinyl panel insert will eventually begin to peel off again when there is no longer enough felt backing material left for the glue to stick to... In other words, it's not the glue that fails, but rather it's felt backing material which is attached to the door panel that fails from degrading.... If you're searching for a permanant solution, you need to remove the felt backing material from the door panel completely and then install a door insert panel replacement manufactured from ABS plastic... That being said, I strongly recommend taking a look at the attached TH-cam video link. th-cam.com/video/QLKvDPy7kTM/w-d-xo.html
That is a 2010 Mustang I think - 5.0 and the kick-up at the rear of the door on the beltline... I have a 2005 GT with the black with red pleather trim, and I did both of my doors. I removed the whole interior panel and brought it in the house. But I used the three men and a teflon. The passenger side came off in probably less than a year, but the driver side seems to be holding up. I will remember the mineral spirits for cleaning them the next time - I simply sent these through the clothes washer with cold water and maybe a little detergent from an orange jug. I'll bet my car was losing its inserts before that car in the video was built!
It's a 2011 or 12. The 2010 still had the 4.6L V8 and by 2013 the front end had changed slightly. My 2021 hasn't come apart yet, but it's nice to know how to fix it once it does!
You can if you want to. But I never would because I have customers who depend on me and I want to retain my good reputation. It is my experience that those that you mention never hold up to the real world. Thank you for the great comment as you can help me get the word out and counter what the other "Experts" say to use spray adhesive in a can. Only use contact adhesive. Please keep watching!
I mean, I get why you wouldn’t but for someone who’s doing a DIY, I don’t have all the tools and gadgets. And surely don’t want to buy all that stuff just for one corner that’s bubbling. Idk I’ll keep looking. But thanks !!!
@@SimplyMee..228 You're still much better off buying a small can of contact adhesive from a hardware store and using a paintbrush to apply it. The spray adhesive will not last. All it will do is make a mess... I hope this helps.
If stipped and prepped correctly, the correct glue is used, it will never peel off again. Never use any spray glue that is made by sounds like "Three Men". If you have ever seen a video that says to use this, I guarantee that they don't have the experience necessary to give good advice.
Hello Jay, It does work 100% of the time if you follow these instructions. The key is prepping correctly and ONLY the use of contact adhesive. Do it right! Don't give up so easily. Please keep liking and watching!

If you did not remove/peel off the remaining foam backing material fabric after removing all the old glue? I need to know one way or the other just to make certain that we're both on the same page... In the meantime, I also went ahead by attaching a link for the Mongrel Motorsports TH-cam video which shows his process for removing/peeling off the second layer of foam backing material from the door panel... Also, keep in mind that I'm not referring to the actual vinyl door panel insert itself, as I already have the vinyl insert removed from the door... th-cam.com/video/QLKvDPy7kTM/w-d-xo.html
Hello RMP, I removed the old vinyl. Stipped off all of the old glue. Glued on the new vinyl, duplicating the original application. It is that simple. Thanks for watching!
How much do you charge to do both panels and what state are you located
@@joshuawellwerts2078 The installer is located in Texas.... However, just keep in mind that he does NOT remove the felt backing material that is glued to the door panel... Unless the felt backing material is completely removed, it will only be a matter of time before the vinyl panel insert will eventually begin to peel off again when there is no longer enough felt backing material left for the glue to stick to... In other words, it's not the glue that fails, but rather it's felt backing material which is attached to the door panel that fails from degrading.... If you're searching for a permanant solution, you need to remove the felt backing material from the door panel completely and then install a door insert panel replacement manufactured from ABS plastic... That being said, I strongly recommend taking a look at the attached TH-cam video link. th-cam.com/video/QLKvDPy7kTM/w-d-xo.html
That is a 2010 Mustang I think - 5.0 and the kick-up at the rear of the door on the beltline... I have a 2005 GT with the black with red pleather trim, and I did both of my doors. I removed the whole interior panel and brought it in the house. But I used the three men and a teflon. The passenger side came off in probably less than a year, but the driver side seems to be holding up. I will remember the mineral spirits for cleaning them the next time - I simply sent these through the clothes washer with cold water and maybe a little detergent from an orange jug. I'll bet my car was losing its inserts before that car in the video was built!
Hi! I think everything you said is true! Thank you so much for watching!
It's a 2011 or 12. The 2010 still had the 4.6L V8 and by 2013 the front end had changed slightly.
My 2021 hasn't come apart yet, but it's nice to know how to fix it once it does!
@@oldschoolautoupholstery I just redid my passenger side with contact cement, and I also removed the padded backing.

@@DanEBoyd Hello Dan, I am so glad to hear that you got it done OK. Please keep liking and watching!
Where are you located???

Dang can I just use spray adhesive or a hot glue gun???
You can if you want to. But I never would because I have customers who depend on me and I want to retain my good reputation. It is my experience that those that you mention never hold up to the real world. Thank you for the great comment as you can help me get the word out and counter what the other "Experts" say to use spray adhesive in a can. Only use contact adhesive. Please keep watching!
I mean, I get why you wouldn’t but for someone who’s doing a DIY, I don’t have all the tools and gadgets. And surely don’t want to buy all that stuff just for one corner that’s bubbling. Idk I’ll keep looking. But thanks !!!
@@SimplyMee..228 You're still much better off buying a small can of contact adhesive from a hardware store and using a paintbrush to apply it. The spray adhesive will not last. All it will do is make a mess... I hope this helps.
How long did it last before they peeled off again?
If stipped and prepped correctly, the correct glue is used, it will never peel off again. Never use any spray glue that is made by sounds like "Three Men". If you have ever seen a video that says to use this, I guarantee that they don't have the experience necessary to give good advice.
Which glue you said was good to use please I am going to do this to my car with the new covers
@@fermintorres8327 Only use the yellow contact cement which can be bought at most hardware stores.
This DOES NOT WORK!. They peel off then you have a big mess to clean up.
Hello Jay, It does work 100% of the time if you follow these instructions. The key is prepping correctly and ONLY the use of contact adhesive. Do it right! Don't give up so easily. Please keep liking and watching!
3 Men 🤣
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
