You could try Dunlop contact to contact glue , I used this in the past and it's a git to pull apart
That's if you ain't tried it already

The guy that's doing it is a upholster so it's a spray adhesive he uses

I have tried but no success, I have got through three sets and still have a drivers front that needs doing, I might get a set of four flocked and be done with it

Ade could you post up some pics please as my mate got some rears done but they had to stitch around the door handles.
I think they where pressed when first made hence why there difficult to repair.
Thanks

Flocking is nice when new, but unfortunately it's a night mare to keep clean

I do like the look of them flocked, is it a very hard wearing finish though
