i found sum vinyl or a kind of leatherette material to retrim my doorcards from the local market

so i went into dominoes to find some fabric glue in a spray as described in this tutorial:
http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=42330
but they didnt seem to have big cans and what they had was for paper, nothing stronger.
anyone know where i can get this fabric glue spray or what else i can use!
thanks

Try somewhere like Carpet Right or other carpet shops, they always stock tons of dry glues like this. Or a stationers.

i done mine myself i used contact adhesive,i got this from my local hardware store. u put it on the fabric and the door panel and they stick when in contact, stick them together quicker than the can tells you so you can get a bit of play if u get a crease. u can lift it off if u muck it up but only once or twice
