Simulating carpeting

My way of making a carpet is to use a tissue, just go here and take a look.

you know one of these days I'm gonna have to try using glue to flock. I have always taped off what I dont want flocked, airbrush a tad heavy and flock befor the paint dries. Maybe the glue would save me a step.

 However a side bonus to my method is i get premade floormats. The little raised square they usually get you to set the seat in place. I tape that off as to keep it clean of paint and flock. When I pill the tape up it's preshaped and now flocked. makes good floormats =)

Detail Master does carry flocking in a variety of colours.  Basically you would put white glue (Elmer's or the like) where you want the carpeted area, put some flocking on there, wait a bit then flip the piece on its side, tapping it gently to knock off the excess.  The glue will dry clear and if you make a mistake, it can be washed of with water.
