What is that fuzz inside the glove box?
It looks like its just black fuzz sprinkled on glue. Where would I get this stuff and how would I make something similiar to how the glove box is done?

If I remember my elementary school days, you can recreate that fuzzy texture with this powdery stuff from an arts and crafts store. You spray contact cement on, then tumble it on until it covers.

Damn, is it that simple? Would you happen to know the durability of this stuff? Im thinking about coating all the plastic trim pieces in this ****, as well as the dash. Looks like it'd wear off over time and maybe start leaving black fuzzums on you if you rub on it. Id imagine you'd clean it with a sticky roller like you'd clean a shirt with.

Ive got no A/C. Im wondering how dirty this stuff can get and how hard it would be to clean.
Id like to find out what was in that scoot 4rotor. It has the dash I'd like to make. I thought about something like suade, but at $400+ a hide it was a bit out of my price range (especially since i bet id have to replace it in 25 years).

Dude why would you do that?
It would look horrendous and would permanently ruin the interior. I don't ever put anyone down on this forum but I have to tell you that this might be one of the worst ideas I have heard yet.

30 second Google search turns up all the fake suede you want for $8.00 a yard. Good luck

Hey Mike, try a search for a user "RonKMiller"... he did his interior with the alcantara(aka ultrasuede) stuff.

Man that stuff is crazy expensive. I might try some fake suade that I can pick up from a fabric store. Gonna have to waste a bunch of it to figure out how to get it to stick to stuff anyways.
