How to mold a car carpet OEM LIKE - No heat gun

-----------------------------
Once more I stand out how templates are useful not only for car seats but for car floor carpets.
I used to directly place an automotive trim carpet over the car floor and mark it with a waxed pencil on its reverse side. After adding the required seam allowances I trimmed off the excess of material. The carpet is then sewn down on the reverse side to join several cuts I did.
To the present time I do the same process of trimming and sewing down. The only change is I have found very useful the use of butcher's wrapping paper to make a template for the car floor carpet. It helps me a lot because I save carpet material, besides, marks, cut of holes, etc. are premade in advance.
Believe it or not the templates are of precision and I can mark and do the required cuts on the new automotive carpet with much confidence.
I hope you find some inspiration in this video and the tips useful!

outstanding result!!! I have one question, min 11:00 why you only glue some points instead the whole carpet?

[@knotsandstuff]

That is the heel resting location. If it weren’t glued the carpet would shift and bunch over time from regular use.

[@Cechaflo]

It could be the whole portion. I mean the carpet glued down to the rectangular padding/underlayer piece. I put some dense points of glue instead. If I would remove the carpet for some reason the rectangular portion would be adhered to the carpet material. The loose wool part of the padding was glued down to the reverse side of the carpet. The more compact face of the padding was fixed to the car floor. I left over the old undercarpet because it is somehow useful to add 'body' to the car floor carpet. Some carpets could be also secured to avoid slippery with sticky strips/tape of tar

Ein großartiges Ergebnis. Beim Titel des Videos frage ich mich, ob es auch die Möglichkeit gibt den Teppich mit Heißluftföhn zu formen?

[@Cechaflo]

This method works for traditional upholstery carpets where edges are joined using any industrial sewing machine or by hand sewing, it actually does a better close OEM look as shown in this other video: ✅kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZWWZ5qVe9qdfLM Traditional carpets can easily burn when applying heat directly and even a low temperature won't make a really noticeable effect to erase wrinkles but there are some special automotive carpets with a heat activated glue (a kind polyurethane) in the backing that allows heat-molded: www.thehogring.com/2016/01/26/how-molded-vehicle-carpets-are-manufactured/

We have another video using the same patterning- molding technique. ✅ kzbin.info/www/bejne/omXJaJiCrZyHqZY The sewing machine helps to get the car floor carpet done quick but if you do a hand sewing the result turns to a really close OEM-like ✅kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZWWZ5qVe9qdfLM
