Are you talking about the cloth itself or the plastic around it?

justjoshin · 01-03-2015, 06:48 PM

I took the cloth off and painted the plastic parts. Not sure if that is what you meant or not...

Pacmanz12 · 01-03-2015, 06:57 PM

The cloth..

Pacmanz12 · 01-03-2015, 06:59 PM

I have heard someone say to peel off the cloth (felt) and paint the plastic then reinstall

Sorry only if the finished product. Its very easy to do and use goof off to remove the glue it came off very easy rather than heavy sanding

Pacmanz12 · 01-03-2015, 07:37 PM

Thats what i meant. ...i would like to see the finished product

mydreamcar · 01-03-2015, 08:15 PM

I ripped the cloth out, removed all the adhesive, sand and wet sanded until smooth, primed, painted, and clear coated mine
