Carpet tiles on to MDF/Ply

Post by Ed209 »

Just looking for info about possibly sticking carpet tiles to board for moulding chevrons.
Best adhesive and in general is it a good idea
Thanks Paul

Make sure the carpet tiles you use will stick the Velcro. Some do. Some don't. :roll:

I’d did this for years while I had a chevron board. The B and Q packs of 10 seem to work well with Velcro.
