  • Vinyl Glue

    Hi all I recently purchased a Tonneau cover from another member unfortunately his car obviously has a small or low steering wheel so there is no provision in the drivers side for the wheel. I have some vinyl left over from the interior so intend to fashion a steering wheel cover from that. my question is does anyone know of a strong vinyl glue that I can use? All attempts so far have failed.

    I used to work for a company that made Vinyl Roof kits and we supplied Evostik Contact adhesive for sticking the fabric backed vinyl to a car roof. Follow the instructions carefully or it will not work. I think you can still buy small tubes of this glue so you can try it before moving on to larger areas. Good luck.

        I Used Evostick, which you can get from B&Q. In the Yeovil B&Q they keep it in a safe so you will have to prove you are over 18!

        As Sidon says, carefully follow the instructions.

          Just to remind you Mark - make sure it is Contact Adhesive as opposed to Impact Adhesive. Both are offered by Evostik.

            Great thanks. Unfortunately at 55 years old I don't think I will have to show my ID
