Blue Piping how to stick? Adhesive? Advice? also anyone ever used Colorbond in their interior? Does it look nice? Does it last?

Anyhow question

1. I have blue piping in the door, and also where the sides of the bucket seats meet the plastic backing. It's just tucked in there but it moves out sometimes when I sit down. I'd like to stick it in their more permanently. I tried a double sided tape, but it didnt want to stick to plastic well at all. What would work for this?

2. I love black interiors in muscle cars. i saw the linkg to Colorbond on here Colorbond Restore or change color of vinyl, leather, carpet, plastics or metal. however I havent seen any 3rd party videos on youtube or anyone on here who has tried it. I would do it if it works....has anyone seen it done properly in any car? link with pics or vid?

Thanks for the help guys..... loving my new BSP monster.

I used instant cement sparingly to put gray piping in my door inserts. May have used in four spots max - at each end and a couple of places in the middle. No problems at all. Haven't used Colorbond.

what kind of instant cement? how long has it been holding? the pipe is nice tight and straight? i just bought some clear RTV silicone i think its called, havent used it yet. thanks for the reply.

wish someone knew abou the colorbond stuff too.

Here is my piping. I just tucked it in there, I do not think glueing will help on the seat backs due to the flexing that occures. Good luck!

Are you talking about the side of the seat, or the back?

I haven't had any problems with it popping out, but I don't have it on the side of the seat, just the door and the seat back.

That looks cool - what are you guys using as the piping?

The piping wouldn't stay in place in a couple of spots so I trimmed the tail, for lack of a better word, then used a drop of Krazy Glue. It's been a few months and still looks great.

Bought the piping here

Vinyl Welt Cord Piping by the Yard Boat Upholstery

You'll have a ton left over if doing just door inserts but this is still a cheap mod.

I saw this my first day on the boards and thought it was a pretty cool and easy mod..... Well I have been thinking about it and settled myself on neon/lime green and now for the life of me can't find it... Anyone know where I can find a vinyl welt piping?

You can get it on ebay too, a little more $$, but no minimum yardage.
