Bingo, I painted the floor black and let it dry. Then I spread Elmers glue on it and sprinkled the flocking everywhere. Pushed it in with my finger and let it sit for 5 minutes. Then I shook the excess off and finished drying it with a hairdryer. The last step was to take a big brush and clean off the remaining excess. It's amazing how real the finished product looks.

Sorry about the pic, no matter how many I take I just can't seem to get it to focus.

Awesome...definately a new trick I'll have to try.

Oh...and stand back and use the ZOOM on the camera to get close and fill the image (granted, if you have a Zoom feature or try using the MACRO function (button with a flower)).

Come on peoples...lets start posting picks of our works in progress.
I will post mine tonight when I get home. 2nd coat of paint just went on the shell of the car last night. Still have clear coat and stripes, and final details to do. ( headlights, window sill, etc.)

Everything else is done.





I will show you mine if you show me yours!!

Thanks, I'll try that when I get home. I have a Kodak EasyShare DX7630 and it's still set the way it came out of the box.

No, they do not take direct orders, FYI I picked mine up on ebay for less than retail, including shipping!
