We have just set up a workshop for electrostatic flocking of dashboards, centre consoles or practicaly any other part that you want to have done.
we have a full professional electrostatic setup with an epoxy spray booth to give a top quality finish to the parts.
if any forum members want any of their parts done at a good rate please get in touch and i will make sure you get a very good price.
virtualy all colours are possible and its a great way to make tired looking plastic parts look like new.

some examples of parts we have done

£99 for a small dashboard plus 2 additional small components is quite a competative price, we are happy for people to bring parts to us and collect parts from us to save on packaging and carriage costs, unfortunately bulky items like dashboards are not cheap to ship these days

the latest project a nissan pulsar dash in for repair, modification and flocking

the dash as recieved, has had a hole cut in the front for a guage that the customer wants filled, customer has made a start on fitting a guage pod by cutting away the vinyl to expose the plastic structure of the dash on the top where the pod is to be fitted, also the dash has several areas of damage to be addressed.

http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/419654_336966749683661_265290366851300_946114_5863 73550_n.jpg

first pieces of damage were at the back left side of the dash
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/417758_336966386350364_265290366851300_946102_2088 200590_n.jpg

http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/423442_336966403017029_265290366851300_946103_1081 907356_n.jpg

both repaired with cyanoacryalate resin and skim filled to restore the correct shaping
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/426386_336966439683692_265290366851300_946104_1927 722686_n.jpg

next was some pretty major damage to the front edge of the dash
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/430267_336966559683680_265290366851300_946106_3387 97890_n.jpg

again repaired with resin and filled to restore shaping
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/422596_336966466350356_265290366851300_946105_4835 54523_n.jpg

more damage to the tray on the top of the dash
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/431987_336966729683663_265290366851300_946113_8978 27261_n.jpg

repaired and refinished
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/423583_336966696350333_265290366851300_946112_1538 194760_n.jpg

guage pod location as we recieved the dash
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/421338_336966343017035_265290366851300_946101_1262 133372_n.jpg

cleaned up the mounting surface and cut out underneath the pod to allow easy routing of wires / pipes
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/419159_336966199683716_265290366851300_946096_1285 838950_n.jpg

guage pod fixed in place with cyanoacryalate resin also the edges of the vinyl were consolidated with resin, this helps to stop any cracks from starting from the edge, once cured excess was sanded away
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/420628_336966276350375_265290366851300_946099_1389 772089_n.jpg

dashboard was set level and space around guage pod filled with epoxy and left to cure
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/426977_336966239683712_265290366851300_946097_8223 20632_n.jpg

pod was then filled and blended in to give a nicer final finish, grooves in the sides of the pod that were originaly to allow 2 screws to be used to fit the pod were also filled as they served no purpose now and looked out of place
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/430324_336966316350371_265290366851300_946100_5247 7015_n.jpg

hole in front of the dash when we recieved it needed filling
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/432000_336966653017004_265290366851300_946111_7329 99710_n.jpg

we moulded a round puck of epoxy to fit the hole and then shaped the face to match the shape of the dash front and beveled the edges to allow it to be bonded in place, it was also backed by plastic reinforcement behind on the inside of the dash
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/423314_336966619683674_265290366851300_946110_1446 253245_n.jpg

face was then skim filled to resore the dash's original shaping
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/418067_336966579683678_265290366851300_946107_1002 446277_n.jpg

hi there, for a pair of rear quarters you would be looking at £60 including return postage :agree:

Nice. I may be up for doing this.:agree:
its also a great way to tidy up your dash if there is any damage to it as i can repair most damage or issues they may have prior to flocking, minor repairs are covered in the flocking cost however any repair work taking longer than 30mins will be quoted before commencement and charged at reasonable rates

hi there, the color chart below shows most of the standard flock colors but if you want something specific i can do custom mixes to achieve different results, and if you want a glitter effect in it i can sort that as well ;)

we had some more parts in to go with the modified dashboard we did for the renault 5

a common problem with getting these sort of dashes flocked is things like the switches jaming up due to companies flocking where is convenient rather than putting in the effort to make sure everything will work as it should, carefull masking and finishing to remove excess flock is the name of the game.

we have decided to offer our custom mix graphite grey flock at the same price as normal colours due to demand meaning we are able to mix it in larger quantities and hold as a stock colour.
due to it being made from a mix of different greys and black it has a slightly sandy / grained appearance which gives a realy nice effect. some images below of graphite parts and of a dash we have done in 2 tone black and graphite grey

whilst its still wet you can remove it with acetone but its a realy awful job to do, takes ages, half kills you with the fumes and means you gotta prep the whole thing again, its the sort of mistake you only make once then you make sure you get it right from there on lol, why you after something a bit tricky doing :)

another modified dash, this time for a mk2 astra we did some minor repairs to the edges of the dash where the compressed card that it is constructed from had started to break apart, we stabilised the structure using cyanoacryalate and then preped it and flocked it in black.

i decided to make a custom centre console for my renault 5 turbo as i wanted to fit a more modern stereo but i wanted to keep the car looking period and simple inside so i put my original centre console into storage in case i want to change back at any time in the future and started work on a new one.
basicaly im going to graft in a mk1 clio stereo cover to hide the more modern stereo from prying eyes.

1) how cover looks in the open position
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/563473_356475647732771_265290366851300_997710_7343 0068_n.jpg

2) and how it looks closed
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/529909_356476357732700_213051717_n.jpg

3) first thing was to remove the plate sticking up at the back as this will just get in the way going into the 5
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/553042_356477231065946_265290366851300_997712_1885 092771_n.jpg

4) top edge finished neatly and straight with a sanding block
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/524444_356478177732518_848436153_n.jpg

5) view from the back, the top edge of this will fit against where the bottom of the ashtray screws in in the 5
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/539244_356478837732452_265290366851300_997714_2196 08808_n.jpg

6) because the fixings for the ashtray are recessed a spacer was made from a couple of layers of plastic bonded together and shaped to fit into the recess, 1mm pilot holes were drilled in the correct place for the fixings
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/558558_356479777732358_265290366851300_997715_6745 08922_n.jpg

7) after trial fitting into the car to get positioning correct the spacer was bonded to the clio stereo cover pilot holes were drilled through into the cover and pegged with wire to keep allignment right
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/533485_356480014399001_265290366851300_997716_1346 482747_n.jpg

8) top edge was finished flush
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/526544_356480221065647_265290366851300_997717_1110 411991_n.jpg

9) the first of 2 donor centre consoles, this one will form the basis of the new console it came from ebay with a broken top mount but as this is not needed the bargan price was a plus
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/564697_356480324398970_2081711239_n.jpg

10) console now cut out for ready for grafting in the clio stereo flap, as this will sit slightly forwards of the original possition the switches will also need to move forwards so the mountings are cut out and will be relocated later
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/551862_356480447732291_927180246_n.jpg

11) front on view of the console
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/548547_356480627732273_1630711194_n.jpg

12) after fitting the console into the car and offering the clio cover up to the ashtray mounting point the 2 were tacked together to ensure correct possitioning
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/389725_356480724398930_1895694881_n.jpg

13) rear view showing pieces of plastic temporarily tacked in to hold position correct
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/556052_356480897732246_265290366851300_997723_2016 061848_n.jpg

14) the second centre console, again an ebay find in with a job lot of other parts had holes cracks and front vents broken out and has been sprayed with black dye but will do nicely as a donor to take sections from, the front section was cut out for grafting into the new console to form a new front edge
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/551653_356481017732234_265290366851300_997725_6188 57316_n.jpg

15) section was trimmed to fit and cut in half as moving it forwards requires it to be a couple of mm narower side to side, pic shows first side bonded into place, note a strip has also been bonded in the back edge of the switch hole as the front section will fit to this area, also the sides of the clio cover has been cut away as the sides will need to be reconstructed to match the lines of the console
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/555958_356481117732224_265290366851300_997727_4342 95716_n.jpg

16) close up of the first section grafted in
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/557146_356481264398876_1503757704_n.jpg

17) plate bonded inside to provide a base
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/533457_358246654222337_265290366851300_1003851_151 2821656_n.jpg

18) section cut from the other console bonded on to form the side also a plate bonded inside along the front to add strength
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/318222_358246730888996_1494432059_n.jpg

19) plate on side filled with cyanoacryalate and finished to shape inc fine filling of some of the previous parts
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/544972_358246820888987_169449_n.jpg

20) next section of side bonded in place along with another strengthening platre inside
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/582070_358246910888978_265290366851300_1003854_148 9444107_n.jpg

21) right hand front section bonded in place
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/582080_358246994222303_1582296666_n.jpg

22) switch panel section was cut from the other centre console along with the curved side profile as i want to angle them slightly so that it leads into the stereo area rather than there being a big step up to it
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/582446_358247077555628_265290366851300_1003856_632 105731_n.jpg

23) section was cut out and replaced with part from the other consoles switch area in order to form an extra 2 switch locations for a future mod
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/549253_358247140888955_2093131380_n.jpg

24) plates bonded front and back to strengthen the join between the parts
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/295108_358247217555614_265290366851300_1003859_972 524242_n.jpg

25) 5 switch recess ready to fit
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/385589_358247327555603_413478264_n.jpg

26) switch panel tacked into place
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/555514_358247424222260_143238084_n.jpg

27) front view of switch panel tacked in place
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/536263_358247554222247_1803478623_n.jpg

28) switch panel bonded in all round on front and back and skim filled to get final shaping
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/535606_358247644222238_457883978_n.jpg

29) started work on the other side of the console
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/309957_358868037493532_265290366851300_1005337_208 4235776_n.jpg

30) got the right hand side up to the same stage as the left, also filled the top sides either side of the stereo opening with cyanoacryalate to make them good and solid, gone over the entire front end filling any joins, nicks and screw holes from a previous owners additions, then sanded everything forwards of the stereo opening to give a good base for the flock to adhere to
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/564508_358868117493524_265290366851300_1005338_751 058523_n.jpg

31) trial fitted the console to check the back edge as i had to alter the angle of the top section slightly to keep the stereo angle correct so as to miss the heater assembly, as i expected this has left a gap at the back of about 3mm so i will have to fit a plate along the back then refit the part that fits the recess where the astray fixings are
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/536789_359581937422142_265290366851300_1006783_192 0984243_n.jpg

32) how it will look with the cover in place
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/533275_359582010755468_265290366851300_1006784_538 336311_n.jpg

33) in order to rectify the small gap between the rear of the stereo surround created when i had to angle the surround to avoid the stereo hitting the heater assembly behind where it fits the rear edge needed remodeling, to do this i first removed the locating piece i had previously fitted on the back and sanded back the surface so that a plate could be bonded on to it to fill the gap
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/528004_360807857299550_265290366851300_1009565_152 2034229_n.jpg

34) plate now bonded in place left slightly oversize so that it can be finished flush along top and sides once the sides have been finished
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/524257_360807913966211_1423726662_n.jpg

35) locating holes were drilled through from the front so that the locating piece could be refitted in the correct position again using wire guides
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/540409_360807970632872_265290366851300_1009567_190 6131154_n.jpg

36) both sides were completed structuraly with plastic and sanded to shape
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/548477_360808063966196_265290366851300_1009568_156 1574450_n.jpg

37) fine filling done to give final surface smooth for flocking
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/405129_360808140632855_265290366851300_1009569_818 831197_n.jpg

38) to prepare the cover flap the plastic section was first removed from the metal frame
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/530437_360808233966179_761616695_n.jpg

39) to allow for the extra thickness of the flock coating whilst allowing the flap to operate smoothly without catching i removed approx 1.5mm from each side of the flap using a sanding block
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/553802_360808303966172_265290366851300_1009571_122 5528138_n.jpg

40) edges were then reshaped to get rid of the sharp corners and restore the original shape, also the surface was keyed ready for flocking
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/549296_360808400632829_265290366851300_1009573_112 5496247_n.jpg

41) like most renault 5 centre consoles the mounting lugs had seen better days and whilst they were still functional with washers i decided to sort them before they got any worse
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/522696_360808473966155_807922915_n.jpg

42) plates bonded in place to the top of the damaged mountings and slots made using a dremmel and a small milling cutter
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/563144_360808563966146_265290366851300_1009575_114 8694147_n.jpg

43) opening the flap by hand would just be far to 1991 for my liking so im mounting a servo to do the job for me, bracket has been made from a section of plastic crafted to fit the underneath of the back where the flap stowes when open
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/564355_366084070105262_265290366851300_1020902_136 926386_n.jpg

44) bracket will be bonded into the console once link rods etc have been made to the correct length, extra blocks have been glued on where the screws fit to give them a good thickness to fit into securely
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/399123_366084193438583_265290366851300_1020903_658 685334_n.jpg

45) shaped control rod made from plastic, this may be changed for metal at a later date but for development purposes its far easier to cut, bend, glue and modify a bit of plastic to get the right shape and length, proper fixings are substiuted with wire at the moment to allow me to pull apart and put back together in second rather than minutes
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/303307_366084293438573_413656969_n.jpg

46) slot at the back of the surround cut to allow the control rod to pass through
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/399105_366084356771900_700453738_n.jpg

47) rods attached and servo/bracket held into place at this point the final servo attachment hasnt been made so there is a rod joining the servo centre point and the arm to allow me to work out where parts will fall as the servo moves and determine the angles of movement required
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/544839_366084490105220_265290366851300_1020907_553 480891_n.jpg

48) servo bracket now fixed into place and arms trimmed to length to give the correct amount of movement, joints still pinned with wire at the moment until fixings arrive
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/545775_368133649900304_265290366851300_1027649_129 2386354_n.jpg

55) bracket for the servo was touching the heater assembly and lower edge of dash when fitted to car and would not allow the console to quite fit into place properly so the shape of the back edge was revised to give the required clearance
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/179737_383773561669646_1688993021_n.jpg

56) areas that were modified have been etch primed so that any imperfections can be seen easily. all imperfections filled.

60) top mounting holes opened up to correct size for fixing screws, as these will locate where the bottom of the ashtray mounts the fixing screws will need to be conciderably longer than the originals.
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/379358_386699981377004_265290366851300_1074473_560 547071_n.jpg

61) holes countersunk so that screws can be fitted flush, as well as being neat this is also required to avoid the flap getting caught on the fixings.
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/522832_386700054710330_265290366851300_1074474_149 9913107_n.jpg

Makes a fantastic difference in the dull Megane interior :agree:
as standard they are a tad dull for a sports model, i realy like the look of it with the flocked parts in the same colour as the bodywork i think the guy struck the balance about right on what parts to have done, it doesnt look overdone just enough to make it look a bit sporty

Had a customer send in some renault 5 door cards for refurbishment and a bit of modification so that he could fit his aftermarket speaker grills into them instead of the original plastic grills.

1) these are the grills that the customer wanted fitted into the door cards
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/534943_413562898690712_1963109277_n.jpg

2) lower edges of the cards had a fair bit of water damage so section at a time they were clamped flat and painted with a thinned resin so that it penetrated the card and then set in the correct flat shape
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/487831_413562958690706_1414531183_n.jpg

3) cracks and surrounding area impregnated with cyanoacryalate to restore original strength
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/251820_413563032024032_627651112_n.jpg

4) again area impregnated with cyanoacryalate to restore original strength
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/295405_413563078690694_1363856675_n.jpg

5) this area had 2 cracks, distortion to the shape and a missing fixing so it was clamped in place for teh repairs to be done
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/599926_413563135357355_1489353740_n.jpg

6) area surrounding cracks and where the fixing was missing were soaked in cyanoacryalate, fixing was then clamped in place to set
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/8023_413563252024010_329522622_n.jpg

7) bolster on one side had started to collapse but damage was only in the surface layer of the card with the main structure being intact
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/293231_413563305357338_1512031847_n.jpg

8) cracked area set with resin to prevent any further cracking occuring
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/529456_413563362023999_22950045_n.jpg

9) to mount the aftermarket grills i cut some rings from mdf sheet
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/251803_413563388690663_42514401_n.jpg

10) mounted the mdf rings in the back of teh door cards so that they sit slightly below the level of the normal speaker aperture
http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/582692_413563418690660_2063467365_n.jpg

11) view from the top, speaker grill tabs were already missing so it saved me a job removing them :)
http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/522040_413563462023989_2012999990_n.jpg

12) edges of the speaker holes had seen better days and were crumbling
http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/255203_413563515357317_1597674683_n.jpg

13) edges soaked with cyanoacryalate to make them good and solid
http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/527947_413563572023978_579592081_n.jpg

14) edges sanded down and filled as required to restore shaping
http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/555864_413563608690641_1062832295_n.jpg

15) blocks fitted to the back of the rings to give something substantial for the grills fixing screws to fit into

20) cards coated in a layer of thinned epoxy, this soaks into the surface ensuring good adhesion and allows refinishing of the card surface to improve the quality of finish

had some peugeot 207 bits in to us recently, parts needed a fair bit of cleaning as they had been previously painted, all parts were cleaned down by literaly scraping every last bit off by hand then steam cleaning, once dry they were then sanded and etch primed before flocking could be done

http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/s720x720/395855_423167257730276_1131124183_n.jpg


drivers a pillar had a pod fitted, when i sanded the surface back i found a combination of fibreglass and filler that was cracking away from the plastic of the pillar
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/547872_423167287730273_1063319416_n.jpg

close up of the pod, decided it would be more viable to strip it back to the bare pillar and build from scratch
http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/562733_423167321063603_276300837_n.jpg

http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/580969_423167411063594_68411674_n.jpg

http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/536736_423167457730256_442999040_n.jpg

had a customer after a astra g centre console with 3 gauge pods replacing the TID display and asking for them to angle towards the driver.
starting point was one of these gauge pods

pod was cut and trimmed to fit the top of the console, also grooves were machined into the front and slits in the top so that with a little heating the front could be bent along each groove to curve the front
