Ernie I have a carpet question - Kurt Horvath - 07-17-2009 16:15

Ernie,

I can't keep the carpet on the steering column and the area around it,especially
the a/c registers on each side of the steering column. What do you recommend to
keep the carpet from falling down. I've tried Velcro, and double faced carpet
tape, it only held for a few days, the Velcro lasted about a year. Any help is
appreciated.

Kurt, go to hardware store and get a quart of contact cement. With a paint brush coatthe back of the carpet and its opposing areaand let them dry to the touch. In fact, you can do that in the afternoon and come back in am and press the carpet where it originally came from.

PS:

If you saw the news today, 5 Murdered in Southern Tennessee, that was in my home
town Fayetteville, it's a sad day around here. Go figure, some people are just
messed up beyond help.

Kurt, your carpet will be semi- permanent. We can always pull it off.
