sissydear Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 ultrasuede - looks like leather, buy it at a fabric store, a little expensive, but a little bit will go a long way. edna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo44 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Bill, here is an item I have used previously that I really liked because it comes out very evenly. You have your choice of several color's. Woodworker's supply.com "mini flocker" I would caution you use a large plastic bag to place your piece in after you spray it so all of the fibers will be contained and can be re-used that do not adhere to the piece the 1st time. LOTS less mess we found after a few messy trials. LOL!!! Another thing we did was to place a piece pf tape over the entire area to be sprayed and then cut out just the holes, letting the spray get into them and not the flat surface of the face we were working with. Now that I think about it, a 2 tone spray job might look pretty good in fact. Holes one color, the face another color. hhhhhmmmmm..................... might have to give that one some more thought.

david Chamberlain Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hi Bill you crazy man, Maybe sound out Phil Thomas [email protected]. He's making eight cedar marble boxes for me right now. He does use felt but he may have considered other mediums. Nice guy. Was a cpl. room down from Lee Linne at Amana. Hey, stay out of trouble.
