What is flocoating? I didn't even think about sanding it.


Sent from somewhere in Cali

The flow coat is a 1:1 mix of gel and clear. Below is a pic of the clear I used. Some people will just do the clear and leave the wood/fiberglass floors exposed or they'll mix a color into it like I did.

The company I purchased everything through is: http://www.sherfab.com

I forget who I talked to there, but they gave me good advice on how to prep and spray the stuff. I was very happy with the results.

Pull all the old carpet out and then pressure wash it. The pressure washer will get pretty much all the glue off then go and sand everything like your suppose to and spray.

I did flow coat in my engine bay and carpet on the rest. I used loctite 300 spray on adhesive and bought my carpet at lowes. I think it was outdoor carpet it turned out pretty good. It's all in your prep and it takes some patience. Pressure wash the old glue and sand. Take your time
