I did more or less the same job but sanded off the old glue residue from the door card. Threw away the vinyl and used instead real colored leather. Came out very nice and smooth.
Great result, especially since you kept the original vinyl. However some details are hard to finish around the edges and bizarrely shaped areas because of the shrinked vinyl. I fear the glue won't stop the vinyl from continuing to shrink and that it will end up looking as before despite all you hard work
Gald you like the video. The glue that I used is quite strong so it should hold very well. Unfortunately there is no “like new” fix to this that im aware of. The only other option would be to get the series 2 doors where they hardly have this problem. I have had the doors like this for a few months now and no issues as of yet 😄
Перед снятием винила с карты, надо было греть феном, чтобы винил принял форму карты, только потом отклеивать и клеить по новой. Я так уже делал, трудоёмко, но результат лучше.
Im glad the video can help, one thing i can recommend is when you take the vinyl off make sure the surface on the back and the cardboard is clean so the glue adheres as good as it can. Ive had both my rear doors done as seen in the video for a few months now and they are still in great shape
With contact cement, you can lightly spray with isopropyl alcohol to allow a medium to slide the vinyl into place. However, when I do this, I use 3M's 77 product. I line up the whole skin onto the frame, trace the desired location onto the frame and spray both parts of one corner, clip it in place like you did and start working towards the other side. That gives you workable adhesive where you need it and a form anchor where it's already lined up.
Somehow I think that one should start from the top of the door card as that is the part that shrinks the most and will need the most work/heating/readjustment done to it. 🤔
I know this video is old but at 12:13 you just snap that extra piece on - that's what I'm struggling with right now, that piece is hanging on by a thread and I don't know how to secure it any better - how is it designed to fit?
Hi thanks for watching, to be honest it doesn’t really snap into place without the panel being fitted to the door first, it snaps into place once on the door. It really isn’t a great design in my opinion.
What kind of adhesive is good to hold the inserts in place, the place that I paid to have them put back on had them on, but eventually all inserts just came off.
I used a two part glue that gets applied to both mating surfaces, let it sit for about 20 minutes and then apply them together, its held up pretty well since. Some parts it has lifted a little unfortunately but for the most part its still very good
Hi mate, i forget the name but its a two part blue, if you’re in Australia it’s available from Bunnings. You spread it on both mating surfaces, let it sit for about 10 minutes and then apply them together and it holds really well. Just make sure the area the glue goes on is as clean as possible to ensure good adhesion

Beautiful work my friend, real leather would look great

@@ДмитирийИльин Bonne idée
@@ДмитирийИльин So if you heat up the vinyl with hair dryer it gets soft? In the elbow area my vinyl is shrinked badly.
Thanks for posting this! In my E34 the door card vinyl on all 4 doors is just starting to come up and this was just what I was looking for!

Hello and thank you for this video. How long did it last ?
Hello, its still holding quite well, it’s lifted in one section but its an easy fix, the main section of the vinyl is still holding well though

Using white letters would have been a bit better... ;-)
Good video, thanks.
what's that cement's name ?
I paid to have the inserts back on,as soon as they were on, they didn*t last long I have the 4 inserts.
Nice mate ! I have to do it for my e34 too... what type of glue are you using in this vioeo?

@@restotime392 right thank you ! Let's do it mine
До ремонта было лучше!))) Херня получилось
но, какими то пузырями пошла местами и приклеил так что потом хер отдерещь когда вспучится снова и на краях отойдет
а в комментах все довольные
😆😆
I love my car e34 BUT i hate door panels. Just bad bad bad engeneering. W124 is way better
100% agree with you, though the update e34 did fix the issue more or less
@@restotime392 more less than more. same shit.. but I still love it
"Ибонько "
Sorry sieht schlimm aus
