How To Make Carpet For 1/24 Scale Model Cars

[@richiesspeedshop82]

I know most guys who do this flock . But I buy a 9x11 sheet of felt from any craft store . There's tons of colors to pick from. What you do is lay the sheet down and cut out the templates for the seats and such with a pair of scissors. Go back and forth dry fitting until it looks right and then grab some spray adhesive . Spray it on the floor of the model itself and then start from one end of the carpet felt and lay it in place. It looks awesome.

That red carpet is stunning. That prelude is going to be amazing.

[@JHHobby]

Thanks mate! 😄😄

[@marcarchambault8668]

great job, tips; you could put a sheet of paper under your work area and recuperate the flocking.

[@iron-man8706]

This is amazing but i'm sure i can't do that it's a little difficult😢

[@MrObsidian23]

Great video. The nail art option I didn’t know about so many thanks. For white glue. If you mix with a bit of water it will go on much better and provide a smooth surface for the flock. The outcome is the same. Cheers.

[@JHHobby]

Thanks! Yea i did add some water but maybe i add too much it became too watery😂

[@tint661]

That looks so nice. We used to use hobby felt and white glue to make floor mats. I had some luck with soaking the felt with white glue and installing it on the floors. Then using a finger nail file to move some of the fibers in the felt for an ok look from outside of the car. That was when I was a kid.

[@carsonridge8978]

I've always struggled with modeling carpet. This method might be the answer I'm looking for. Thank you

[@JHHobby]

Glad to hear that😄😄

[@seegurke93]

Nice Idea. I think I will use this pouder for the structure of carpet but after applying, I will seal it with Gloss coat and then paint it the way I wat it, then reseal with a gloss or matt coat.

[@richardpacheco6341]

If you did this over paper it would be easier to safe the excise carpet material for another project. Great video.

[@MrMajikman1]

Your interiors are awesome. Very detailed and very precise!!

[@AngelHernandez-dz9jd]

Great video and another tip of what I did instead of glue is that if you used the same color like flat black and then flock it, it will make it 100% much better in my opinion

Very helpful nice buddy i baught same nail powder and i used clear dry pvc glue for plastics wood an stuff but never turns out as smooth and is always patchy can u give me any advice on how long to leave it do i put much more differnt clear glue on or clear coat paint i seen some people use id love to get all my honda kits with good carpet flooring and atleast 1 door open an close on each to show off the inside u know

[@dustinrossi9384]

I just got flocking, and embossing power, I've never tried this will soon, I use to use black sand paper, but a Lil more work

[@DavidRLentz-b7i]

David R Lentz, USA You have an interesting idea here. To reduce the waste of all the flocking powder that does not fall upon the white adhesive (as we see at round 2:10 in your video), I suggest placing under the model’s interior a large paper plate to catch the leftovers, for one to use later in the carpeting process. For white or very pale flocking material, a shallow, darkly coloured bowl would serve instead. Does this material work for fabric seat covers? It seems that set you used might. Or does your supplier offer a different item? I infer that leather or Naugahyde (a trademark for an artificial material designed to resemble leather, made from fabric coated with rubber or vinyl resin; source: Bing/Edge) would have a glossy finish. Similarly, how might one simulate unusual patterns, such as stripes, especially pin-striping? Or splodges, tiger-prints, florals, zigzags, iridescent fabrics, etc.?

[@waynewootton5385]

wow looks great what a nice job what colors did you use on the seats love the colors to wow

[@JHHobby]

Thanks man! I dont have the exact ratio of the paint when i mix..i just put in tamiya flat red and mr.hobby red until i got the colour i want😂

[@waynewootton5385]

@@JHHobby the you so much for reply very great full

[@CarDreamsinStyrene]

Great video.... it also works by using paint and put the powder in the still wet paint...

[@edwinmunoz2595]

nice and clean work

[@kevinsnyder4425]

Great video, but I would use a wider brush for larger areas. More even coverage. Maybe for h.wheels, try crushing the flocking with a small rolling pin ?don't know if it would work, but it's worth a try !

[@JHHobby]

Haha true😅 i think i use the wrong size too😂

[@TheREALOC1972]

I use felt sheets, You can get them for like $5 for 50 sheets off of Amazon and they are only 1 MM thick. they are perfect for it and they are cheap.

Looks great! I use the same method but with really fine strained sand. I may pick up some flocking material. Awesome video!

[@JHHobby]

Thanks man😁 yea i need to get the proper flocking powder for better scale accurate 😆

[@Tanman799]

Any ideas on shag carpet I'm guessing do the same thing but with longer Flux thinking of cutting yarn?

[@GrandNational66]

Do areas like the transmission hump 1st to let it set up longer to a tacky state as it will sag or drip down causing a crappy carpet...if not happy you can wash it off.

[@jameswilliams6049]

That is brilliant!

[@davyc412]

Do you recommend thinning the glue with water? It seems like when applying the black carpet the glue was thinned but for the rest it looked like it was straight out of the bottle

[@JHHobby]

I tried to thin it with water but doesn't really worked, so i stick with pure glue..but u can thin it if u need to😉

You should do the flocking over a piece of paper with a bend in it so you can re use it.

Is the white glue just PVA glue?

[@JHHobby]

Yes its smthng like that..some call it crafting white glue or wood glue

[@deannetzel1606]

So I’ve seen people use the same color paint as the carpet to make it stick ...is glue better then paint?

[@JHHobby]

I find it white glue is better..paint tend to dry too fast😅

[@deannetzel1606]

@@JHHobby yeah...I would agree! Figured that out yesterday! Glue is better...thanks!

[@dannyzuko1843]

What about floor mats?

[@JHHobby]

U can try using sand paper and cut them in size😁

[@Atte123]

Btw can I polish my model car without sanding if it doesnt have clear coat on it?

[@JHHobby]

Its not recommend yo do that and will not have any results by jst polishing the paint..it will shine abit but u still need clear coat as a protective layer

I just recently bought my first model and I am moving onto painting the interior. What color of paint do you recommend I should use to make the seats, steering wheel and other interior parts to look realistic as possible? (Imitate a basic stock interior)

For interior normally i would use matt and semi-gloss paints😁

In fact, if you look at a read car from a distance, you cannot see the carpet texture so clearly, The real scale reduced carpet actually looks like flat painted effect...
